Cup and saucer or Mug?

Jump to newest

Following on the thread on tea and coffee, how do yours to be served?

At home and casual dining, I prefer a mug.

However, it does not seem right to be served a mug of something at the end of a nice meal in grander settings.

IMHO, of course!

I've got a great, big, Darth Vader mug which retains the heat fantastically

you know something ive never thought about this but your right, i always use a mug, dont even think i own a cup and saucer but if i went out for a meal and was served a d*unk in a mug i think i would find that odd, not because i would mind drinking out a mug i think its more because you come to expect certain standards from certain places and a nice meal out is just one of them times your expect not to see a mug

Mug...I don't own a cup and saucer. Plus I have a habit of dropping and breaking things so a cup and saucer might be a dangerous thing for me! x

in a large mug, at industrial strength with milk n a sweetener (can't fit a lady in a basque into a cup tho... but it does count as a sweetener... )

Cups seem so limited, whereas mugs have been more flexibily fashioned, so that we can have ever more huge sizes. Whilst Starbucks has launched their Trenta size - almost 1 litre of coffee, at 916ml/31Oz - I wonder what their mug's like... not seen it yet, but may only be a paper cup size. Seems the definition of a cup largely relates to a small vessel.
