At the dinner table is the best way to observe whether a person has self-restraint, especially when a group of people sit around to eat together, many details are indispensable to pay attention to, otherwise it will leave a bad effect of 'no self-cultivation'.
Table manners: what should we pay attention to at the table
Serving for ladies and elders
If you are a man and you are surrounded by women, you should use your gentlemanly demeanor to serve women, such as opening the seat and asking the waiter for something. This is especially true if you are sitting next to your elders.
order
When ordering, if you are the host, you should invite the guests to order, starting with the elders, then ask the lady's opinion, and finally ask the children what they want to eat. Take care of them.
Waiting to be served
When waiting for the dish to be served, it is impolite not to knock on the table or tableware because of boredom. You can talk to your right-hand friend, and then talk to your left-hand friend.
Mixed vegetables
You can't use chopsticks to pick the dishes or half of them. When you find something you don't like, you put it back on the plate. If the food you want to eat is far away, don't stand up to clip it. You should wait for it to reach you or ask someone nearby to help you clip it into your bowl.
At dinner
When you eat, you should hold the bowl up, but don't hold your arms too open to squeeze people to the side. Don't put one hand under the table, bury your head in a bowl and eat by yourself. When holding vegetables or soup, you should put the bowl together to catch it. You should not let the vegetable juice or soup spill everywhere. Don't move too much, be careful to splash on the people nearby.
Don't press your elbow on the table when eating. It doesn't hurt to hold one or both elbows on the table during the serving time, because it's a natural gesture for people who are talking enthusiastically. However, when eating, it's better to leave the elbow off the table.
Don't 'bully' a few favorite dishes, so that others can't eat. Don't gobble or make a "Bata" sound. You should keep your mouth closed and taste carefully. It's not only elegant to eat, but also helpful to digest.
pick teeth
If you find something in your teeth, you can't pick your teeth in public. It's better to get up and go to the bathroom to complete this action, or to stand on your side, cover your mouth with a tissue, and then begin to pick your teeth quietly. Pick out the thing application paper towel, and then, wrapped and then put into the bone dish.
Meal break
When the meal is suspended, there are many choices about how to place your hands. You may like to put your hands on the table with the bottom of your wrist against the edge of the table, or you may like to put your hands on your knees under the table. Keep your hands still, in the eyes of your deskmate, it may be much better than fiddling with the food on the plate or with your hair!
Have a good meal
If you have a good meal first, you should get up and say to everyone, 'I've had a good meal, please enjoy it' and then leave the table.
