What utensil would be the farthest left in a typical place setting?

In a most basic setting, on the left, between the napkin and the plate would ordinarily be the fork. In a broader setting, still referred to as a 'basic' setting, there may be a salad fork to the left of the luncheon fork or dinner fork. So, as a simple setting to visualise from right to left would be: Spoon, Knife (with blade facing the plate), Plate, Fork, Napkin. Above the spoon and knife would be a water glass and above the napkin and fork might be a butter plate, with butter knife, (handle facing towards the plate, and blade facing downward).

What is a typical place setting?

A typical setting, such as often seen in small cafés, consists of simply a knife, fork and spoon. Occasionally, there may be a butter plate provided. Moving from Left to right would be: Napkin, Fork, PLATE, Knife (blade facing plate), Spoon. In some cultures, the napkin is placed beneath the fork. Optionally, a coffee cup may be placed above the knife and spoon. Quick-serve restaurants often dispense with etiquette rules and opt for functionality by placing the Fork, knife, and spoon atop the napkin. In those scenarios, the entire collection of cutlery is placed to the right of where the plate will eventually go.

Setting a table where do you put the fork and knife?

In a standard Western or European setting the knife goes to the immediate right of the plate with the cutting side of the blade facing toward the plate, and the fork (or forks) go to the left of the plate; with the dinner fork closest to the plate and forks for other course to the left in such wise as the fork for the first course is on the outside, Hence the rule of thumb, when unsure of which fork to use, start at the outside and work in.


How do you distinguish a butter and salad knife?

A butter knife has rounder edges, is often smaller, and in a place setting will be placed on the outside of the knifes. A salad knife is often not included because a sharp enough fork to cut the salad will be made available. Its edges are sharper and it is longer in length.


Why is table setting is important?

It's just good manners to set the table for eg. when a guest comes over and usually we put a fork, knife, plate, glass for every meal but it's not a 'must' to set the table. It also makes the diner more comfortable if everyone follows the reccommended pattern for the place setting. That way wherever you go, you will know where the knife, spoon, fork, glass, etc. are when you need them.
