Do not serve dishes at the same meal that conflict. For instance, if you
have sliced tomatoes, do not serve tomato soup. If, however, you have
potato soup, it would not be out of place to serve potatoes with your
dinner.

Fish should never be served without a salad of some kind.

The above are merely suggestions that have been of material assistance
to me.
