The food presentation plank is an elongate, planar plank used in the transport of food from the preparation location to the location of presentation for consumption. The plank has handles formed in the ends of the plank, the handles also being dimensioned and configured to receive condiment or sauce dishes. The plank has a liquid collection groove surrounding the food presentation portion of the plank, for collection of liquids coming from food on the plank. This groove eliminates the need for a dam or wall for preventing liquid dripping, and without interfering with the full view of the presentation on the plank. The plank allows a user to prepare for the attractive and appetizing presentation of a catered or gourmet meal in a location remote from that of either the presentation or consumption.
