This style of silver service table setting is typically used in less formal events,
such as when you want your cuisine catered, prepared and plated in the
kitchen. It is an efficient and simple choice. Service is approached from the
left and cleared from the right. Functional and easy to manage, this is a
technique which is used around the world.

This is used in luxury restaurants and hotels. The foods are prepared and
arranged in the kitchen by the chef, then brought by the waiter to the dining
room. Food service is done by the guest starting at the head of the table going

This type is best used when the diners are not more than eight. This is
somewhat a compromise between the Russian and English styles that is some
foods are served in individual dishes directly from the kitchen and some foods
are served on the table.
English Service
This is similar to family style, all foods are served in the table by the host or
hostess, a waiter places the plates for the guests and passes the
accompaniments for the course.
Cafeteria Service
Many food service establishments have found it possible to increase the volume
of food to be offered to diners by offering takeout meals which include proper
