trittico/ salse with rack

tri- obviously means 3... so if you look on the internet, anything about trittico is something in threes... and word trittico is used. I am including a couple websites for your perusal which may be able to help you.

Oil, vinegar and toothpick cruet

I was just thinking of what you get on a café / restaurant table over here in Italy that comes in threes!
I've never seen those tray type plates, but there again I don't get out much!

set of three

unless you are talking about those dishes/plates divided into three parts used in restaurants to serve three different items at the same time (e.g. rice, meat and vegetables)...in this case I'm stuck, I can't remember the name :-)

I also found it as a "partitioned plate"

The other change Miller introduced between visits one and two was to replace a regular dessert menu with a "farandole," a chef's choice of micro-desserts served on a partitioned plate. I wasn't sure I wanted so much dessert, but the sampler platter sure made my job easy. My tablemate and I worked around the plate clockwise, tasting a tiny molten-centered chocolate cake, a few tablespoons of an orange-scented crème brûlée, two bites of a densely creamy cheesecake, and a forkful-sized almond-berry galette with raspberry sorbet, all excellent.
