Setting the Table
3
Tableware Tableware refers to any item used for serving and eating food A place setting is the tableware needed by one person to eat a meal Dinnerware is what most people mean by “dishes”
4
Dinnerware includes the largest pieces in a place setting – dinner plate, salad plate, cup, saucer, and the numerous serving vessels. Flatware - knives, forks and spoons, gravy ladles and cake servers and other large serving pieces.
5
Glassware – stemware or tumblers Stemware has a thin stem between the bowl and the base Tumblers are flat bottomed with no stem Crystal indicates the amount of lead
6
The arrangement of these place settings is called a cover. The placement of pieces in a cover is based on tradition and function. Allow at least 20 inches in width for each cover.
7
Table Setting Basics Center the plate on the cover about 1 inch from the edge of the table. In a restaurant where diners will not fill their own plate, leave a space for the plate on the cover. Flatware is arranged in the order in which it is used starting at the outside and working toward the plate.

Table Setting Basics
9
Place knives to the right of the plate with the blades facing the plate
10
Place spoons to the right of the knives.
11
Place forks to the left of the plate. If dessert forks are needed, bring them to the table when you bring the dessert
12
If you have both a soupspoon and a teaspoon, the soupspoon will probably be used first so it goes to the right of the teaspoon.
13
In a more formal setting, the dessert flatware may be place above the plate. The spoon will “point” to the left, the fork to the right.
14
The beverage glass sits just above the tip of the dinner knife. If a water glass is used, it takes that position and the beverage glass is set to its right.
15
A cup and saucer for coffee or tea would go to the right of the spoons but are often brought to the table after the meal.
16
If a bread-and-butter plate is used, place it above the forks.
17
Place the salad plate or bowl either to the left of the forks or above them, depending on the available space.
18
Place a folded napkin to the left of the forks. It can also be arranged on the dinner plate or tucked into a glass.
