We should exactly know the table size, the number of dishes, and
total weight of bread, then we could talk.
Is that white bread ? How many slices ?

Yes. They are both perfectly correct.

many is used with countable objects, so "how many dishes" is correct
much is used with uncountable objects, "much water", or "much bread" if you talk about bread as quantity (such as bread crumbs)
