ABSTRACT:
A vessel support and plate which allows the user to carry a plate, napkin, and drinking vessel in one hand. The assembly includes a drinking vessel support member, a napkin holding member, a plate member and a means to grasp the assembly. The vessel support member has a recess to receive the base of a drinking vessel. This recess has a mouth extending from its periphery to its center, allowing the supporting member to cradle stemware by its bowl, with the stem suspended therefrom. A tilted grip member attached to the plate allows the user to hold the device with minimal effort. A bulge cooperating with the grip member on the bottom surface of the plate allows the user to comfortably cradle the plate in the palm of the hand. The assembly further includes a member to detachably receive a napkin.
