It is necessary
Tablecloth, dishes, cutlery, glasses, wine glasses, cloth napkins
Instructions
Step 1
Let's cover the table with a tablecloth. The tablecloth should be linen and ironed. The edges of the tablecloth should go down and cover the legs of the table, but not touch the seat of the chairs. If the tablecloth hangs below it, it will cause inconvenience to your guests.
Step 2
We place dummy plates on the tablecloth according to the number of guests. Plates are placed at a distance of 2 cm from the edge of the table, opposite each seating position. Snack plates with a smaller diameter are placed on the counter plates. Napkins twisted in a pyramid or folded in a triangle are laid on plates.
Step 3
Place the devices next to the dummy plate. The knives are on the right side of the plate, and the forks are on the left, teeth up. The devices farthest from the plate are the devices that will be needed first. If the menu includes soup, then the soup spoon lies on top of the lining plate.
Step 4
Glasses and shot glasses are served to the right of the plate, closer to the middle of the table, parallel to the length of the table. The largest glass for water is placed at the farthest, glasses and glasses are located to the left of it, in decreasing order in size.
Step 5
Plates of sliced bread and spice cutlery are placed on opposite sides of the table for everyone to reach comfortably.
Dishes with cold appetizers and salads are served immediately, even before the guests arrive. Hot meals should be served well preheated, just before use.
