serving utensils
Spooning and forking
Serving utensils are the larger implements used to transfer food from serving dishes to individual plates—spoons, forks, tongs, ladles, and spatulas designed for communal use rather than personal eating.
They're typically bigger than table utensils and often come in matched sets: Use the serving utensils, not your own fork.
