FRENCH SERVICE
In French table setting, eating utensils are placed in the order in which
they are to be used. The utensils furthest from the plate are the ones you
will use first. The forks are placed to the left of the plate but here's the
trick, point the tines down for a French setting.

elegance and precision of the interaction between the server
and the guest
Formal or Russian SERVICE
In Russian service, the guest's place is set with great attention to
detail, and the food is presented and served by the waiter directly
from the kitchen. The waiter brings each course to the table on a
platter, then proceeds to carve and serve the meat, fish, or other
main course items to each guest

Foods are cooked tableside, just like cart French service, but
instead, servers put the foods on platters and then pass the
platters at tableside. Guests help themselves to the foods and
assemble their own plates.
