^They should anywhere that things like Lasagna or Curry or Stew or any sides like Coleslaw will be served!
^No, soup spoons are round and table spoons more oblong shaped. Try ordering a 3 course meal in a decent Western restaurant just once that includes soup, a main, and dessert, and see what 3 spoons are tabled for each dish. There'll be several different knives tabled as well, but let's just stick to baby steps for now.
First you said a soup spoon is a table spoon, now you've changed your mind.
And you've moved the goalposts.
All afternoon we were disagreeing about cutlery at home. You were claiming these items, virtually extinct in the western home, are in every kitchen in the world.
Now you've switched to talking about restaurants...when you order soup.
Pretty much a giveaway that you concede you're wrong.
Just add one more smart arsed comment will ya, and then we're done.
^Show me where I said a soup spoon is a table spoon.
^Yeah this is fun! Heaven forbid people who eat soup at home or at restaurants should have soup spoons, they're obsolete apparently
Never knew about using a soup spoon as measure, learn something new everyday. I've always used heaped and level teaspoon or tablespoon for measuring.
I prefer the British style rounded soup spoons but we tend to use the Chinese style ones nowadays.
I was under the impression that a tablespoon was the same as a serving spoon. It is oval, like a dessert spoon, but slightly larger.
Long handled teaspoons are not dessert spoons.
I was thinking about Nachos the other day, appreciate the reminder. I just got my Chips, Jalapeņos, cheese delivered the other day. I will use my hands to eat but use a soup spoon to scoop up the last bits.
I have a few different styles of soup spoons. Depends on the bowl I use.
True that Mendy. I did for a few years for work but honestly I never felt like the Korat area was hard-core Isaan. However I took quite a few moto rides on weekends and saw some interesting little villages. It would take a very special type of person to live in some of those areas.
I can see the confusion here . . . as usual it's boys arguing about size while missing the vital part: shape. Round-ish vs Oval-ish
Of course size is important but if you can't handle either it's a moot point
I rest my case, m'lud
Our spoon drawer before culling for Thailand. The round spoon I always call a bullion or cream soup spoon, I describe tablespoons and oval soup spoons as differing in length but not style. There are also grapefruit spoons (pointy), demitasse spoons, a sugar shell and a salt or mustard spoon (if salt should be gold washed) and a few serving spoons.
Pattern is Durgin Louis XV from the early 1890s.
