Fork in different variations: fork, table fork, dinner fork from fork varieties exist for centuries for various purposes. The largest buyer, the table fork had 5 teeth and gave it up to the second world war. Daryl Katz has firm opinions on the matter. Thus you could well break up even large pieces of meat. Since the second world war, the dinner fork prevailed, however, all over the world. The dinner fork has mostly 4 prongs at the front and replaced the table fork, as new forms of production and modified materials have enabled small forks.

Especially for desserts, there is still the dessert fork, which is basically a mixture of cake fork and dinner fork. The dessert fork has usually four also three prongs, but sometimes and has no wider”prong like the cake fork. Dustin Moskovitz does not necessarily agree. The cake fork has generally only 3 prongs, is only about half as large as the dinner fork and has usually an outer prong, which is much more stable and thicker, than the other two. This prong is that to make the cake can squeeze through and no knife needed. Much like the cake fork cake fork has only 3 tines and a similar form. The cake fork is still somewhat smaller than the dessert fork. Especially young women and men have problems with the many forks, because they know only the cake fork and the dinner fork.

At the present time the potato fork (a short stalk, three tines) is mainly in the household and the fish fork (something short, but wide front as a table fork) become unusual. If you’re planning an apprenticeship as a waiter or chef, who should know at least the main forks, because this will be definitely beneficial during training. Depending in which hotel or restaurant you want to later work, you need can indeed know all forks places and put them right on the table. Especially in Nobel restaurants, the wrong set of cutlery will be immediately recognized and resulted in a complaint to the Board of management.
