At a business party

1. A plate can be held on the index finger of the left hand and

secured by the thumb.

2. At a table, a plate is to be set center the place setting one inch up from the edge of it. Avoid wrapping your arm around it, or holding it on the tips of your fingers; (both of these things I have seen.)

3. If you are served a meal in a soup plate, or in a bowl without an underlying plate, be careful what you get for dessert; you might be given a biscuit.
