Each hostess may have her own
particular manner of executing GER
tain details of service; but there are
a few fundamental principles to be
observed.
As in table setting, however, these
rules are only suggestive and should
not be used unless they seem adapted
to the occasion.
The serving of the meal should be
straightforward, prompt and orderly.
The waitress should be attentive,
quiet and deft in adapting customary
conventions to suit the needs of the
guests and the occasion. She should
be- neat and clean, especially her
hands and nails. She should never
allow the dishes to touch her dress.
In handling plates and bowls, her
thumb should never extend over the
rim. The tip of the thumb may be
on the edge of the plate, or the
thumb may grasp the plate parallel
to the edge.
It is the duty of the waitress, whe-
Their she be servant or a member
of the family, to organize her work
so that suitable dishes and silver for
tdCl CUuESc are III IcdQlIcSSs IL 10
desirable to have the silver and chi
ma for each course separated so that
it can be easily and quietly selected.
The serving table, tea-wagon or buff
fet may be used for this purpose.
Hot foods should be served in hot
dishes. In order not to chill foods
which should be hot, the course plates
should be warm. Certain foods such
as toast, baked potatoes and biscuits
may be covered with a napkin to keep
them hot. Food should be arranged
in dishes of appropriate size an
shape. The amount of food should
be regulated by the size of the dish
which contains it.
The water glasses should be filled
ee-fourths full. Butter, if. butter
is to be used, should be placed on
the bread-and-butter plates just be-
fore the meal is served.
The following directions indicate
the preferred methods of placing
dishes and passing foods: 1. The
waitress places the dish from the
right and removes the dish from eth
err the right or left of the guest. Care
should be taken never to touch a
guest. 2. When the waitress re-
moves dish from the right of the
guest, she uses her right hand and
when she removes from the left she
uses her left hand. 3. When plate
is to be removed and another placed
Immediately it is customary to re-
move from the right and place from
the left of the guest. a. Food which
is passed by the waitress should al
ways be offered at the left, as this
The Enterprise. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 192?-1930, 1927-10-21
The Duties Of a Waitress

permits the guest to use his right
hand in helping himself. The wait
ress. should see that adequate silver
is placed on the dish, in a conven-
lent position. She should hold the

desert silver. The table should then
be crumbed, using a small folded
napkin and plate, working on the
left side of the guest.
