How many servings is a plate?
Most experts recommend having eight to 12 five-piece place settings to ensure you have enough dinnerware for general use and entertaining. If you’re buying two sets – one for every day and another for formal use – you might choose four to six casual place settings and up to 12 formal place settings.
Regarding this, How big should a serving platter be? Serving platters should be substantially larger than both your dinner and appetizer plates and should be at least 12 inches.
