Normally in a four course (restaurant service) meal appetizers are served first followed by soup or salad, the main entree, then a dessert.
In a seven course meal the traditional order of service is:
1 appetizer
2 soup
3 fish
4 palate cleanser
5 main entree
6 cold dish (salad or fine vegetable)
7 dessert
Note: formal meals can contain more than 7 courses and often do, adding in poultry, additional palate cleansers, breads, cheeses, fruits, multiple meats(both hot and cold) and a variety of desserts. As well as cocktails, aperatifs, and dessert wines, and brandies. Though these additions are not always considered courses or are added to courses.
