Explanation
To 'serve' food means to present or offer it, so 'offered' is the nearest synonym: they offered fruits after dinner. 'Assisted' means helped, 'obliged' means did a favour or acted under compulsion, and 'waited' describes a servant's role at table rather than the act of presenting food. Hence (d) is correct.
