PARTY-POOPERS NOMORE!-USE CUTLERY THIS FESTIVE SEASON

With the invitations flowing in your inbox or post office box you can only  be successful to turn down a few and some are really difficult to duck them away.You better get ready to show up at a formal dinner that demand table skills.We all learn these things as we grow ,afterall all our childhood we have been using hands to eat our dinner hahahah.Come on these are the things you need to know .I have used this setting to really make you a star tommorrow or anyday this festive season and you will hold the folk the right side of your hands and jab on the right foodstuff.Am i good or good, am not being a smart guy if you read am just being that coward for once to alert myself too how to hold these shinning items because i was once caught offguard when one card read "Remember family matters ,we have your part for a speech"

I was not ready to be crown  a party-pooper,i revisted my college skills on eatery and wham-bam-i got it at last by using my dummy cutlerly(dont ask why coz that time less visitors meant less utensils was a single guy beggining to mingle).



a. Napkin
b. Side plate and butter knife for dinner rolls
c. Salad fork
d. Fish fork
e. Dinner fork
f. Service plate.
g. Dinner Knife
h. Salad knife
i. Soup spoon
j. Red wine glass
k. White wine glass
l. Water glass
m. Dessert fork and spoon

  • Do not panic  start from the outside of your cover setting, and go your way towards the  plate: soup spoon first, then fish knife and fork, then service knife and fork. Use the outside knife and fork for the first course (entrĂ©e), and then simply work inwards for each subsequent course.

  • Knives are always to the right, and forks are always to the left.


  • The soup spoon, will always be on the extreme right if being served as a first course, or second in from the right if being served as a second course.


  • Dessert cutlery will always be at the top of the place setting with the fork facing right and the spoon positioned above this with the bowl facing left.

  • Big events  events, we start with  hot food and cold for foods wait for the host to announce dinner and wait until the head of the table starts.
    Dinner rolls or bread is on your left . Butter each bread roll upon the need to eat. Always use the napkin when you want to spit food out of your mouth.

    Last time i finished eating using these utensils i sighed and i told my friends and said "MAY I GO AND WASH MY HANDS"...........Where is the WC.?  and saw a waiter figuring out what all this meant..........hahahha  dude eat with cutlery from the west speak like them.
