A TABLE WITHOUT FALSE NOTES

 

 

 

Whether it's an informal meal or a fancy dinner party, setting the table properly can be a pain. Discover our tips for creating a perfect table in no time!

In general, guests' plates should be at least 50 cm apart and placed 2.5 cm from the edge of the table. A small space? Play the conviviality card by placing the plates closer together. Cutlery is placed on each side of the plate: knives and soup spoons on the right, forks on the left. To make it easier for your guests, here's a simple rule: the cutlery should be placed in the order in which it will be used. For example, the cutlery you will use first should be placed furthest out from the plate. Above the plate, place the water glass and then the wine glass(es). For a table set up in the French style, the tines of the fork will be facing the table. Knives should be placed with the blade facing the plate.
