  1. Always use a new plate for every trip. Most resturants have a sing by the buffet saying always use a new plate. I think it is a germ thing.


  2. take a new plate to be on the germ free side and your silverware leave it on the table but make it look like your coming back so the waitress want take it away.

  3. Always a new plate.

  4. It's illegal to NOT take a fresh plate in many states.  The reason being that you can drop crumbs back into the food, which might be contaminated, making everyone sick.  And you don't have to wash the dishes, so why not?

    Put your flatware on your napki, in any case.

  5. put the untensils on a napkin before leaving the table to get a fresh plate..  or get fresh utensils if they have them up there..

  6. You should always use a new plate when you make an additional trip to a buffet.

  7. You can always place silverware on  your napkin , please use a clean plate  each time  you return  to the buffet table.

  8. Definitely a new plate each time you go to a buffet. Because is more sanitary to do so. I don't want to use the serving spoon that might have touch your dirty plates already. See what I am saying?!

  9. always use a clean plate. why wouldn't you?

  10. New plate every time......using use plate is rude, and germ spreading

  11. Most (all?) states have a law prohibiting the use of a used plate at a buffet. Nobody wants a dirty plate hanging out near their food!

    Grab a clean plate at the buffet and leave your silverware on the table...either on a small dish or on the table. Buffet servers know not to take your silverware, but if they do they will bring you a new set.

  12. You should always use a new plate when you make a trip to the buffet line. Buffet restaurants also usually have signs telling you to use a new plate.

  13. Always use a clean plate, I usually just leave my silverware on the table on my old plate or on a napkin.

    If all else fails, ask your server for a new fork.
