Why do we set the table?
AnswerHere is what I know about setting a dinner table:Ever watch the movie Titanic?? Yep, if they do it in the movies, then you might as well do it at home; they spend a fortune researching stuff like that and hiring people!But, for everyday purposes it is best to put the napkin on the left of the plate, with the fork on top. On the right lay the knife down, blade inwards, and the spoon to the outside of the knife. I have always seen the cup or glass to the upper right of the plate. If there are any salad dishes set them either to the upper left of the plate, or on the middle of the plate.orBuy the things on the "Things You'll Need" part of the page.Place the chargers on the table, then put the plates on top of each.Fold the napkin length-wise, and loop through the ring. Place it in the middle of each plate.Place the forks on the left side of the plate. The salad fork should be toward the far left, the main course fork closer to the plate. (the salad fork is the smaller one).Place the knives and spoons on the right side. The knives should be closer to the plate, with the spoons on the far right. Make sure the sharp part of the knife is pointing toward the inside of the plate. It will go in the order of: steak (big) knife, little knife, big spoon, little spoon.Place the dessert fork above the plate and the dessert spoon above the fork. (The pointy part of the fork will be pointed toward the right, the spoon mouth will be pointed toward the left.)On the left side of the plate (above the forks), you will place the bread plate with butter knife on top, edge-to-edge.On the top right, set the two glasses.Step back. Your work is finished. You have created the Mona Lisa of Tables! haha
