Entrée

An entrée ( , ; ), in modern French table service and that of much of the English-speaking world, is a dish served before the main course of a meal. Outside North America, it is generally synonymous with the terms hors d'oeuvre, appetiser, or starter. It may be the first dish served, or it may follow a soup or other small dish or dishes. In the United States and parts of English-speaking Canada, the term entrée instead refers to the main course or the only course of a meal.
