Describe a formal table setting

  

Answers


Faith
• A meal of six courses calls for a formal setting
• Some pieces may be cleared and others added
• A formal table setting calls for a charger or service plate to be centered in front of the chair about 1 inch from the table’s edge.
• The first course is placed on the charger and the service plate remains in place when that course is
cleared and continues to act as an "underplate" until the main course is served when it is exchanged for
the dinner plate.
• May call for up to five glasses
• The dinner fork is placed to the left side of the plate with the forks for other courses placed next to it on the right and left; the one to be used first is on the outside.
• For example, the fish fork is placed to the left since the fish course is served before the main course, while the salad fork is placed to the right because in a six-course meal, the salad follows the main course.
• Place the dinner knife closest to the right of the plate with the fish knife to the right of it; both blades are turned toward the plate.
• The butter knife is on the bread plate with the handle to the right and the blade turned down.
• The soup spoon is placed to the right of the knives, and other spoons are presented with the courses
they accompany.
