    Abstract: A vacuum adhering serving system may include a vacuum cup having a suction cup and a suction aperture. The suction aperture may be coupled to a vacuum nozzle of a vacuum pump. A housing including a male container engaging element may be coupled to the vacuum cup. A serving container with a male housing engaging element and a serving surface may be coupled to the housing by coupling the male housing engaging element of the serving container to the male container engaging element of the housing. By placing the suction cup in contact with a substrate surface, such as a table top, counter top, bar top, and the like, and then actuating the vacuum pump, air may be removed from between the substrate surface and the suction cup through the vacuum nozzle to adhere the system to the substrate surface.
