    TABLE NAPKIN

    Group 2
    TABLE NAPKIN

    Cloth napkins come in several shapes,colors and sizes with each size tailored to specific purpose.

    A beverage napkin is used when serving beverages and hors d'oeuvres. Like most cloth napkins,it is square,about
    five inches to each side. A luncheon napkin is a few inches larger,and a diner napkin larger still.The theory,evidently,is
    that the food and drink that is served,the more potential there is for spillage,so the bigger the napkin must be to catch
    it.

    Cloth napkins may be purchased in a variety of colors and wide array of fabrics,imprinted with custom designs
    and monograms, and can even come with matching tablecloths. However, a high-thread-count,white,linen,or linen-
    cotton mix damask napkin is still considered the best of elegance.

    TABLE NAPKIN Napkin Etiquette
    Rule 1: When you're given a napkin, use it . Don't let it sit beside your plate. It was given to you wiping your
    mouth when you need to and to protect your lap from spills.

    Rule 2: Wait for the host to pick up the unfold his napkin before you do the same with yours.

    Rule 3: If the napkin is larger than your lap,fold it such that it just covers your lap.

    Rule 4: When unfolding your napkin,just unfold it. And when you wipe your mouth, Don't use the napkin as
    you would a towel during your morning shower; gently dab at your mouth.

    Rule 5 :Don't wait for the food to be served before you open your napkin. Should your napkin still be sitting on
    the table when the food arrives, the server may have to create space to set you r plate.

    Rule 6: Should you need to leave the table during the meal, leave the napkin loosely folded, on your seat or on
    the table to the left of your plate when you're done eating, never on the plate.

    Rule 7: Many Italian and Italian-American diners put and tuck the napkin into their collars as a custom while
    dining. And for a waiter who carries a napkin draped over one arm, it is practically to dry up any accidental
    spills or other mess at your table.

    Napkin Folding
    Napkin folding is a creative way of representing a table linen making dining more festive and interesting.
    Napkins are usually slightly starched pressed in order to give the fold a crisp , clean look. The linen must be able to
    absorb liquid. Colors may vary from pastel to some dark shades. Neon shades are not advised as it may be
    distracting tot the eyes and not complement the food color.

    There are carious napkin folding designs that are now used in the dining table. Some common folds are:

    1. Bishop's hat
    2. Pyramid
    3. Candle
    4. Fan

    6. Artichoke
    7. Bird of Paradise
    8. Banana
    9. Sailboat
