Planning a dinner and need a reminder of how the cutlery should be set around the tableware? Our lives are pretty hectic, and since ‘tv’ dinners have become the norm for some of us, it’s easy to forget proper place setting of tableware and flatware. So here’s a quick refresher to help you set that ‘perfect’ table.
Top Row From Left to Right
- Bread plate with butter knife (top left of dinner plate)
- Coffee cup (top right of dinner plate)
- Water glass
- Wine glass
- Liqueur glass
Bottom Row From Left to Right
- Salad fork
- Dinner fork
- Dessert fork
- Dinner plate with salad or soup bowl on it
- Knife
- Small spoon
- Soup spoon
Napkin placement depends on your preference, and there are many folding variations.As a default, it can be placed in the water glass as shown, folded on the dinner plate, or beside the flatware on the left. Some tableware pieces may of course be optional.
Setting a beautiful table is not difficult, nor do you need expensive tableware or silverware. Arrangement and creativity are the key to a pretty place setting.
