- In this video I share my top 5 bits of advice for silver serving your guests.
Silver service (in British English) is a method of food service at the table, with waiters or butlers transferring food from a serving dish to the guest's plate, always from the left.
It is performed by a server by using service forks and spoons from the diner's left. In France, it is often known as service à l'anglaise ("English service").
This is the slightly less formal version of the British "butler service'

Nicely done. But I think it is okay to ask the guest how much they want to be served by saying "Please guide me." just before you start serving the food. you are not shouting it out, but even if the guest is in conversation, they will hear it & hopefully comply. Or just serve according to the Chefs recommendation.
Thank you. I agree you could normally just ask. I am just teaching what the traditional way of doing it is. 🙂
8.13am enjoyed your video but as a silver service waitress for 25yrs you missed the very first thing you should have told the server which is how to fold their service cloth under their flat to stop them burning their own arm before flat goes on their arm
Good point. I did mention the cloth but I did not show how to fold it. I will need to make another video. Thank you
Really informative and useful video. It's hilarious to think of servers trying to serve food without plates in front of the guests 😂
Thank you
Shame about the sound quality, but very interesting video, and what a beautiful room!
It's a Green screen
It is 100% real I promise you. If you would like to look up the house it is called Candacraig.
Thank you. Sorry about the sound it was a new microphone and I had it on the wrong settings
Thank you
You are very welcome thank you
Very informative video ❤ appreciate it .
Your voice is very clear there is some little sound but it's ok .

I have an request to plz make us one video for a setup when you place the place mates on table how much gap have to make other placement how much gap in each guest chair how to perfectly allign and how much should have gap from the head guest to next gust cover ❤
That is a brilliant idea for a video thank you.
I've been an "SS" 😮😂, Silver Service, and BB or a Business Butler in London City, and I worked top London agencies 80 and 90s. Love the work, gave me entry to Palaces, Royals ( Princess Di and most of the Royal family, Queens mother at the Royal Albert Hall. Lots and lots of functions top Halls including the Mayer of London nd the the Ex Prime minister Margaret Thatcher . Also worked in the QE2 cruise liner. Had a colleague pouring hot soup at an important lady 😢 , accidents happens but in this case, she was new and nervous to be in a high profile event. I do miss those times. I have been at a number of shows, including Pavarotti at the High Park, Di and Prince Charles, todays King as guests. So many memories I take with me,
Wouldn't two spoons facing either other be better than a spoon and a fork?
Good question. You can use two spoons but it has much less control than a spoon and a fork. The tines of the fork help you grip what you are serving.
How to carry big clearness trays front of the guest as a butler in a professional way etc regarding to body posture of standing like
Thank you for a very good idea for a video
I can imagine food slipping or rolling off the tray when trying to serve. 😅
It can happen!

I’ve never understood why someone would want to dedicate their life to serving the spoiled rich people that are poisoning our world
How to say you're poor without saying you're poor.
It's an interesting question but if you use: Apple, Google, Ford, BP, Amazon, Tesla or any big corporation you are giving money to the rich. The big difference is the rich are giving their money to me.
