Placing the silverware on the table

Careful. So many would respond to the eternal question of how to place the silverware on the table. And it seems silly, but when you invite someone to an important lunch or dinner, we always like attention to detail, and which unless you put everything in its right place. We will focus on the basics, and advanced protocol will not talk about, or to put fish knives, etc., because basically most have not, and is about to learn the bare minimum to keep the exchange.

In the next picture you can see the exact layout of cutlery (mola the paper tablecloth that tells you where to place them, the problem then is how to remove it without pulling all the cutlery).

 

- The fork always goes left.

- On the right will be the knife and spoon. Always be more outside the shed that we use first. Typically, usually a dish - knife - spoon. In case of meat and fish knife is placed closer to the dish which is beef.

- The napkin always goes to the left (rather than a fork), except that we do and we place a figurine inside dish.

- The dessert spoon and fork, go over the plate, the fork being the closest to it.

- Top right should be placed the cups and glasses. Always be on the left the wine, and right on the water.

- And if you pan for bread, place it at the top left. Okay, not very common that you put in your house, but if you go to a restaurant is well know to avoid eating her bread to your companions (very typical).

And how we remember the place of each covered? Let's apply logic and think always as a righty. We have to place them so that we can get them to eat without changing hand (we understand that the fork is covered only we take the left to hold while cutting), and always putting in place those who go outside to use first . Simple? Truth?
