What are the two type of setting?
Predominantly, there are two types of table lay up in Restaurants, Al a Carte and Table d'Hote. In this, cover will mean customer. The first, A la Carte, generaly consists of a 10'' white plate, (though this is not always necessary), accompanied with a silver fork to the left and a silver knife to the right, a linen napkin on the plate (folded in various ways), and a red wine goblet positioned to the top right of the plate, just inside of the tip of the knife. This is quite a simple lay up because of the nature of the service. At this point, the restaurant staff dont know what the customer is going to eat, therefore upon ordering, it will be probably be necessary for the waiter to replace the knife and fork with a fish knife and fork, for instance. The plate will also be removed, to make way for the plated food to come out from the kitchen. The more elegant style of table service is known as Table d'Hote. To the left of the cover, from the outside in, a side plate with a small knife placed on the top just to the right side, a fish fork, and then a main fork, the top of the fish fork 1/4in above the main fork. On the right side of the customer, again from the outside in, a soup spoon, a fish knife and a main knife, again the top of the soup spoon and the fish knife 1/4in above the top of the main knife. (Dont forget, there has to be enough room to get a 12" plate between both sets of cutlery!). Level with the top of the cutlery, a dessert fork and a dessert spoon must be placed. The fork goes above the spoon, with its handle pointing toward the other forks, the spoon below with its handle pointing toward the knifes. In the space between the dessert spoon handle, and the top of the fish knife, a large red wine goblet and a water glass must be placed. Finally a clean folded linen napkin must be put either in the center of the cover or in the wine goblet. Because this is a set menu, it will almost always require these types of cutlery, however it will depend on the menu being served.
Why is the fork on the left and the knife on the right?
Because you use your knife to cut, and your fork to keep your steak from sliding of your plate. It's simply harder to cut your food with your left hand. so you take the fork in the left hand, the knife in the right. That's the reason, why the fork goes left and the knife goes right from the plate.

How do you eat chicken with your fingers but still look like a lady?
If at a high end restaurant or a banquet one does not pick up their chicken with their hands. They use their knife and fork to pull the meat away from the bone. If just out at a general restaurant with a friend or a date you can pick up the leg of a chicken and take small bites; put the leg of the chicken down and use your napkin to clean your lips and hands.

What utensils are used for eating salmon?
Ideally, a fish knife is used to eat salmon; the blunt edge allows the fish to be separated rather than cut, which results in less flaking. Any fork will do provided it's of a matched size to the knife. Otherwise, any knife and fork will work just as well.

How do you eat a pancake?
It depends, when I have small long pancakes I use my hands and dip it in a cup of syrup. But when I have big fat pancakes I use a fork and knife. Or when I have small pancakes soaked in syrup I just use a fork. But I'm not saying how to eat them, just how I prefer how to eat them.
Do you put your cloth napkin on the seat of the chair or the headrest of the chair at a restaurant?
The cloth napkin should go on your lap to catch any spills. The only time you may use a cloth napkin sticking out of the top of a shirt or blouse is when a restaurant such as the Red Lobster gives you one to catch the butter drips.yeah OK...ignore that top answer, it has nothing to do with the question.John H. Remer, Jr (etiquetteguy.com) states: In a formal situation, when you are seated, you place your napkin in your lap neatly folded with the fold towards you. It does not go back on the table until the end of the meal - ever. Use the napkin for dabbing your mouth - frequently. If you need to rise from the table for any reason such as giving a toast or using the washroom, place the napkin loosely on your chair and push your chair under the table. At the end of the meal, place your napkin loosely on the left side of your place setting as you rise. Do not neatly refold the napkin, nor put it on your plate.But then I found this article from Real Simple magazine:If you leave the table during the meal, loosely fold your napkin and place it on the table to the left of your fork. While some authorities recommend putting the napkin out of sight on the chair, Nathalie Dupree, a cookbook author and the host of the PBS series Nathalie Dupree's Comfortable Entertaining, says, "Napkins are meant to get messy; there's no need to hide them." Besides, the napkin could soil the chair, which could then soil your clothing. At the end of the meal, set your napkin on the table.I think the best solution is to put it in your chair, out of sight. I would just be careful to not eat sloppily so your napkin doesn't leave anything in the chair that you might sit on.
