Abstract
A plate includes a plate body, a decorative member and a decorative small plate respectively combined on the plate body separably. The decorative member has a base for containing a light emitting device to emit flickering light through holes in its wall. Dry ice may be placed under the decorative member in a recess for the decorative member to fit and stand on the plate body, producing smoke like mist rising up and dispersing through the holes of its wall. Then the plate is placed with food on its upper surface, with light flickering and smoke like mist slowly rising up, enhancing pleasing romantic atmosphere during dining. Further, the decorative small plate may be taken off the plate body for serving a small amount of food, and separable together with the decorative member from the plate body for convenience of storing and packaging.
