Restaurant meals are super sized and bloated on enormous platters.
From the wood, platters, axe-handles, snow-shoe frames, and dog sledges are made, and it is worked into articles of furniture which are susceptible of a good polish.
The strangers took their seats at the table willingly enough, for they were all hungry and the platters were now heaped with good things to eat.
Banquet menus may be done in a buffet style or in the form of party platters.
Beside these were long rows of wooden pails and dairy utensils, with shining ranks of tinware and pewter platters and pots.
