Game 37Game 38

Game is usually served from the side table or butler's pantry, unless the host prefers to show his skill in carving. The filled plates are placed in front of each guest from the right, and the currant jelly or fruit relish, which usually accompanies game, is passed to the left. If salad is served with game, which is customary, unless it follows with cheese as a separate course, it is sometimes prepared by the host, and should be passed as soon as game is served. Only vegetable salad should be served with game. Meat salad should not be served at dinner, and is only admissible at luncheon, when there are few meat courses. If the game plates are very hot, place small, cold plates at the left of each cover for the salad, but if the salad is served on leaves of lettuce to protect it from the heat of the plate, it will avoid the necessity of the extra plate and is better form.

Remove this course from the right of each cover, one at a time or one in each hand. If the small plate is used, take up the game plate first, then place the salad plate upon it. This is the only exception to the general rule never to pile plates one on top of the other. Serve Burgundy.
