Can you lay
the table?
Lay the Table - Cutlery
1. Knives and spoons go to the right of each plate setting.
2. Forks go on the left hand side of the plate.
3. Cutlery is always arranged in the order in which it will
be used, starting from the outside and working inwards.
4. Forks are placed with the prongs facing upwards and
knife blades should face inwards towards the plate.
5. The dessert spoon and fork are sometimes put above
the place setting in order to save space on the table. The
fork's handle should face to the left. Put the spoon above
the fork with its handle to the right.
Lay the Table - China
1. Lay side plates on the left of the setting.
2. Other plates are generally brought in with each course.
3. A simply folded napkin is laid on the side plate (on the
left) or to one side of the glasses (on the right). If it is
arranged in a complicated fold, it goes in the centre of the
setting or on the side plate.
Lay the Table - Glassware
1. If you are serving a single wine, put the wine glass just
above the tip of the table knife.
2. For more than one wine, provide a different glass for
each wine. Each glass is removed with the course it
accompanies.
This diagram covers pretty
much all eventualities!
