Etymology
Borrowed from French guéridon.
noun
- A small table supported by one or more columns, or sculptural human or mythological figures, often with a circular top.
- A small table or trolley used for tableside food preparation; compare dessert cart.“Classical French service is rarely used except in expensive restaurants, as the gueridon and tableside cooking techniques require time, skilled personnel, and tables quite far apart, allowing for the gueridon to pass between the tables. Gueridon service in a modified form, however, is often used in restaurants of all types and price ranges.”
