Extended data:

1. According to the western menu, there are so-called formal meals, that is, fixed meals, informal meals, that is, ordering food, and big meals, that is, banquets. Tableware varies with food content and time, and has certain rules. Now, the arrangement of a set of tableware for ordering food is described as follows:

(1) The range of tableware placement is based on each guest using a 24-inch horizontal and 16-inch vertical desktop.

(2) When eating with the chassis, it should be placed in the center of the guest room in advance, and the edge of the tray should not exceed 1/4 inches from the edge of the table.

(3) A knife, placed on the right side of the chassis, with the blade facing the chassis.

(4) a spoon, placed on the outside of the right side of the knife, with the center of the spoon facing upwards.

(5) Two forks, a lettuce fork on the left inner side of the chassis, followed by a fork on the left outer side, with the fork teeth facing upwards.

(6) The fast food fork and spoon are placed at the front upper end of the chassis; In fact, there is no need to put dessert forks and spoons on the table. They can be served before or at the same time as snacks.

(7) The bread and butter dish is placed on the left front of the fork, and the butter knife is placed horizontally on the dish, parallel to the fork.

(8) Place the drink cup in the center of the upper end of the knife.

(9) Condiments and ashtrays are placed in the center of the dining table, and the table for two against the wall is placed near the edge of the wall.

2. Precautions:

(1) All tableware distributed by everyone should be arranged neatly according to the chassis. Because the diameter of the chassis is 10 1/2 inch, the distance between the knife and fork is 1 1 inch, and the distance from the edge of the table is 1/4 inch, it should be in a line.

(2) The napkin is perfectly folded on the chassis. If you don't have a chassis, you can put it between the knife and fork (brunch doesn't have a chassis, you should use a napkin or put it between the knife and fork).
