1. A combination food and beverage serving plate, comprising:
an annular surface defining a predominately flat surface; a centrally located cylinder member having a solid interior bottom surface, a top interior surface, and defining a bottom cavity, wherein the cylinder member is surrounded by the annular surface and interconnected with the annular surface, wherein the cylinder member defines a top cavity positioned opposite the bottom cavity, wherein the top cavity is sized to receive a beverage container, and wherein the solid interior bottom surface supports the beverage container and the top interior surface is adjacent a bottom portion of the beverage container when the beverage container is received in the top cavity to hold and substantially prevent; an annular perimeter wall surrounding and interconnected with the annular surface; a bottom annular surface located on an opposite side of the combination food and beverage serving plate relative to the annular surface; a bottom external surface of the cylinder member located on an opposite side of the combination food and beverage serving plate relative to the solid interior bottom surface; at least one separator bar positioned in the bottom cavity on the cylinder member, wherein the bottom cavity is sized to at least partly receive a cylinder member of another combination food and beverage serving plate when the two combination food and beverage serving plates are placed in a stacked configuration, and wherein the at least one separator bar is structured to contact the cylinder member of the another combination food and beverage serving plate to reduce a contact area of the combination food and beverage serving plate with the another combination food and beverage serving plate to reduce friction between the two combination food and beverage serving plates and substantially prevent the two combination food and beverage serving plates from sticking together in the stacked configuration; and a lip interconnected to the annular perimeter wall, wherein the lip is angled down toward a support surface for the combination food and beverage serving plate and away from the annular perimeter wall; wherein the annular perimeter wall forms an outer first boundary for the annular surface; wherein the cylinder member forms an inner second boundary for the annular surface; and wherein the top cavity is tapered, such that a diameter of the top cavity is larger near a top surface of the cylinder member than near the solid interior bottom surface of the cylinder member; wherein the bottom external surface is offset from the bottom annular surface at a height above the bottom annular surface, such that the combination food and beverage serving plate rests substantially solely on the bottom annular surface when the combination food and beverage serving plate is in an upright position on the support surface; wherein the cylinder member is approximately twice as tall as the annular perimeter wall; wherein the combination food and beverage serving plate is a one-piece component; and wherein the combination food and beverage serving plate is circular-shaped, such that the combination food and beverage serving plate is symmetrical about a central axis. |
