Do you serve to the right and clear to the left?!
Answers: Do you serve to the right and clear to the left? PLEASE help...I have a dinner party and need help!
I remember it in the reverse, so I looked it up. According to www.chefalbrich.com, both are right. It used to be more common the way I know it, it is now more common the way you mentioned it. I think the best thing is to do whichever you choose consistently. (Check the website for more details on the logic behaind each practice -- to long to copy here).
yeah that's what they say
That's only a guide. Do whatever fits each situation the best.
i remember it the other way as well...
No! You serve to the left and clear to the right.
No! Proper edict is always serve on the left and clear from the right. But now a days i have seen both done and it also depends on the table layout.
noooooo its the other way around trust me, im in the restaurant business!
Yes, a waiter places food w/ his right hand over the person's right shoulder. He removes the dirty plate w/ his left hand from the left side of the person.
It is serve on the left clear from the right. If you watch all the movies and the ones with the servants they always do it this way.
