Unit 5 text laying a table

The formal service is identical for all occasions. No food is set on the table, except ornamental dishes of fruit and flowers. The one unbreakable rule is that everything on the table must be geometrically spaced: the centerpiece in the actual centre: the places at equal distances and all utensils balanced. Beyond this rule you may set your table as you choose.

The places are set with the plates. On the left of each plate, is put the salad fork; the meat fork is put next, and then the fish fork.

On the right of the plate, and nearest to it, is put the silver-or steel-bladed salad knife, or if the salad is one for which no knife is necessary, the knife nearest the plate is the meat knife: next the fish knife, the edge of each toward the plate. Then the soup spoon and then the oyster fork.

Not more than three knives and three forks are on the table at the moment. Additional forks and knives may be put on the table during dinner as they are needed.

A dinner napkin folded square and flat is laid on each plate: very fancing foldings are not in good taste.

The goblet or tumbler for water is placed directly above the knives at the right of the plate: next to it at a slight distance to the right the champagne glass: in front and between these two either the claret glass or the tall-stemmed glass for white wine. Somewhat to the right again - the cherry glass.
