Today, Tony shares his no fuss tips on how to impress and look like the best. His tips for dinner etiquette are simple to follow and even easier to make a habit.
? The Perfect Setting-To remember the placement of your dinner set up, think of this moniker: ‘Bread, Meal, Water.’ Your bread plate will be on your left, your meal plate is in the center and your water or wine glass will be on your right.
? A Cut Above-When cutting a food item on your plate, your fork should be turned down, holding the item while the knife gently cuts through the item.
? The Rule of Thumb- When it comes to which to use first, always work your way from the outside in. The outermost silverware is for your first and second courses and so on and so forth.
? Table It- It is important to remember that once the utensils are used, they should be placed on the side of your plate and are not to touch the table again, including the handles.
Your dinner etiquette will be a hit with fellow guests and potentially an inspiration. You’re a legend; now, flaunt it!

Get ready for an exciting addition to the Buckhead event scene this coming Autumn, 2012. Atlanta catering icon, A Legendary Event’s CEO and founder Tony Conway, announces this exclusive setting at 3109 Piedmont Estate And Gardens. Otherwise known as Estate, this southern mansion is soon to be home to an extensive array of unique occasions ranging from weddings to social and corporate events.
Estate is being renovated and this southern legend offers a gorgeous space with authentic charm that is conveniently located in Buckhead, the heart of the city. The venue was actually built in 1797 in Wilkes County, GA., and then was moved meticulously to its current location on Piedmont.
Brick by brick, the house was rebuilt on three acres of lush gardens with charming views where it later became known as Anthony’s Fine Dining in the early 1970s. Now, Tony Conway and A Legendary Event is ready to re-open the former historic institution with a modern flair as he restores the property just in time for the Autumn party season.
Excited to bring the “Legendary” brand to Buckhead, the entire community cannot wait for the grand opening! Now accepting reservations by appointment only. www.facebook.com/3109PiedmontEstate
