[QUOTE="Sandra, post: 201149, member: 3335"]Right about the etiquette. I couldn't find any examples of 2 tine pastry/dessert forks, but the shape of the left tine is typical of the blade shape of dessert forks I have seen. The 2 tine shellfish forks are equal in shape and proportionally longer for digging out those morsels. I don't know how a spoon would come in to play in the service of shellfish unless it would be to serve a soup.[/QUOTE]
