    Table Etiquette &

    Fine Dining Etiquette e


    Handling Utensils
    • Hold your fork in your left
    hand, tines downward.
    • Hold your knife in your
    right hand, an inch or two
    above the plate.
    • Extend your index finger
    along the top of the blade.
    • Use your fork to spear and
    lift food to your mouth.
    At a formal affair, plates are removed
    by a professional staff. But as most
    Meals End
    informal meals are served without
    help, the hostess clears the plates,
    often with the help of a guest or two.
    • At a family meal, members clear
    their own plates. If the meal is
    formal, plates will be removed by
    the staff.
    • At informal meals, the hostess
    will probably clear the plates,
    possibly with one or two guests
    helping.
    • At a family meal, members clear
    their own plates.
