Hotel dining table landscape

Sitting on the wine table, with high status, deep qualifications and a seat. Give the leader a toast to himself, drink more than the leader, and it is best to drink it all. Respect the leader from the position, and the leader respects you. You should raise your glasses with both hands, and drink more than the leader. It is also best to pour water from the position. Don't forget everyone present.

First, sit down. (Take the round table as an example)

1, "main escort" position: as the name implies, it is the person who treats guests and pays the bill. The host is the highest-ranking person who treats guests, or the most distinguished person who accompanies wine. It is located in front of the door, that is, facing the front door of the room. The main function is basically the same as that of the landlord, grasping the procedure, time, drinking level and so on of this banquet.

2. "Co-pilot" position: Co-pilot is the second most important position of the guest. To put it bluntly, it is the guest who accompanies the wine, and the second most distinguished person among the guests. The position is opposite to the main guard, that is, the back is to the gate. The main function of this position is to drive guests to drink by their own actions and deepen the feelings between the host and the guest. (The task is arduous)

3. The position of the "guest of honor": The guest of honor is the most important person in the guest banquet, and the person with the highest status or the most distinguished among the guests. The position is the first one on the right hand side of the "main guard", next to the main guard. Because many people care about the severity of drinking in Shandong, foreign guests who know a little about Shandong rules sometimes choose to let people who drink a lot sit in this position, which is wrong. The rule of treating guests is actually a kind of etiquette, but its essence is a kind of respect. If the above situation occurs, in fact, the real guests will not drink much less, and the honorary guests will generally be poured down (because you are not the most distinguished guest but sit in the guest position, just because you can drink, the guests must accompany you well), so the guests are not worth the candle, so don't avoid it! ! ! The host is the focus of the whole wine table, and it is also the most preferential enjoyment of all treatments.

4. "Deputy Guest" position: it is the second important position of the guest. For many years, it has been dubbed as a humorous title: "Assassin (Erke)", which is the first one on the left side of the "main escort agency" and close to the main escort agency. Generally, it is the person who entertains guests, ranking second only to the guest of honor.

5. "Escort" position: This is a name that has just become popular in recent years. In fact, this position is different from the titles of "main escort" and "deputy escort" mentioned above, and the regulations in different parts of Shandong Province are not the same. Generally, it is in the second position on the right hand side of the main guard. His main function is to accompany the host and put the "guests" in the middle for easy care.

6. "Three guests" position: it is the third important position of the guest side. The position is on the right hand side of the "assistant".

7. "Four guests" position: it is the fourth important position of the guest side. The position is on the left-hand side of "Assistant".

Other guests have no clear seating arrangements. Normally, a table is 10 people.

PS:

If you really can't remember clearly, I'll tell you two simple methods: one is the shape of a napkin. In a regular hotel, just look at the way the square napkin is folded in the glass on the table. The two most important positions are different in the way napkins are folded. The napkin of the hostess is usually folded into a cylinder and inserted into the cup. If not, make sure his napkin is the tallest, or use a different color napkin instead. The assistant's napkin folded into a fan. Napkins in other positions are generally three-fold petal-shaped. The layout of the whole napkin is a bit like a phoenix spreading its wings. When these two seats are reserved, other positions will be determined. Because napkins are folded in different ways in different places, it is difficult to distinguish them in shape, and actually they will be different. The second is chopsticks. In a more formal hotel, there are two pairs of chopsticks in the position of the main escort and the deputy escort, commonly known as "public chopsticks". The function of public chopsticks is to serve as a sign of politeness and to help others with food.

After the host and guests were seated, they began to pour wine. Shandong people like to drink, especially in big bowls. This seems to have the legacy of Liangshan heroes. Although there is no need for a big bowl or a small cup now. If you see Shandongese drinking with small glasses in San Qian in movies or TV series, it's either nonsense or because of their age. At present, the standard cup in Shandong is the three-two-three goblet. It is impossible to prove who first became popular, but it seems that a bottle of white wine can pour just three cups. ) There are two and a half cups. Liquor is generally liquor, with a degree of about 38 degrees (Shandong people don't like to drink hard liquor). Of course, beer is also the darling of Shandong people, but it is generally converted according to the ratio of liquor and beer +0: 6.

As the saying goes: the main partner plays together, and the deputy partner practices alone. Of course, the host will take the first drink. Generally, the host should have an opening speech, make a few polite remarks and then set the tone. In other words, this glass of wine should be finished several times. In some places, it is six times, which is called "six times" The meaning of "qi" includes the meaning of "developed" and is auspicious. However, in Dongying, it seems that it is three times the net. These three times are three cups of beer and three cups of white wine. This is the origin of the allusion of "drinking too much". (*_*)

Another explanation of "six-opening" is that it is only for liquor, and there are three main escorts and three auxiliary escorts (there are also four Liang).

Whether it is 3 o'clock or 6 o'clock, every time the host brings wine to everyone, there must be a "start", that is, a toast. Generally, this kind of wine doesn't touch the glass, even if it touches the glass, you should sit down and drink it. There is a well-established saying in Shandong that "drinking while standing doesn't count". If you don't touch the glass, you can click on the table when you raise the glass. This is called "over-charging". In recent years, it has been renamed "surfing the Internet" (-_-|||). In restaurants, you can often hear the ping-pong sound of glasses banging on the table. The wine table was dubbed "Beggars' Meeting". In this way, under the guidance of the host, everyone can drink, eat and chat.

After the main escort takes the wine, there will be a handover ceremony, that is, the right to take the wine will be handed over to the assistant escort, and the main escort will touch the glass and take a sip, indicating that the handover is successful.

Next, the most difficult task appeared. The hostess should start with the guests and have a drink with everyone on the wine table. The specific order is generally guest-guest-guest-guest ... conversely, beer is generally a cup/person, and liquor is determined according to personal strength, so the hostess must be quite strong!

When the assistant accompanies the guests, this time can generally be interspersed. It's called "free activities" on the wine table. Note that this free activity doesn't really let you go out to sober up, but you can drink alone with anyone, you can drink more or less, and there is no limit. Generally, at this time, guests should thank their hosts for their hospitality. Generally, the first round is the guest and host, the second round is the guest and host, and so on. In addition, everyone on the host's side, including the host and assistant, will drink with each guest once, and the enthusiastic host will drink with each guest twice. The so-called "state of etiquette, drinking in pairs." Generally speaking, it's almost enough for a guest to return a gift to each host once more. This stage is the time to understand personal grievances and make friends, so the scene is generally chaotic.

What needs to be mentioned here is that, generally speaking, when Shandong people treat you, there must be fish on the wine table. Fish is a "big dish" in Shandong, and it is called "big dish" on the wine table. Don't look at delicacies, compared with fish, they can only be called "side dishes". It is not that Shandong people are rare for fish. Shandong Peninsula is near the sea, and there is no seafood. The main reason is good luck, "more than a year". Generally, when fish is served, the fish head rushes to the guest of honor to show respect for the guests. At this time, the host and guest should drink fish head wine, and the person in the tail direction should drink fish tail wine. Together, it is "fish head and fish tail wine". In some places, it is "three tails before four tails", but in Dongying, it seems that only one is drunk, and then everyone eats fish together.

Fish is usually the last course. After the above procedures, the host will finally greet everyone for the last drink and let the waiter serve. The last cup must be full, which is called "family fun", that is, everyone drinks it in one breath, then seven meals, and the banquet is over.

Shandong people generally drink for a long time, except for some ceremonial banquets, which are controlled at about one hour. Generally, the banquet lasts more than three hours, while the gathering time between some close friends is longer. So in Shandong, except for those who drink less, most people drink half a catty of bars? When the banquet broke up, most of them must have big tongues and crooked steps.

In addition, there are some etiquette details. For example: offering wine, toasting and punishing wine.

Serving wine: it is a glass of wine given by the younger generation to the older generation. The younger generation doesn't drink. It doesn't matter how much you drink after it's over. It is most polite to show respect for your elders.

Toast: It usually happens between subordinates and superiors, and between host and guests. More common. The toaster touches the cup of a respected person to show respect or gratitude. Beer usually depends on the bottom of the glass, and liquor decides for itself.

Punishment for drinking: being late for no reason, leaving early, or making excuses to leave halfway will be punished. Usually, you will be fined three cups, so you don't have to accompany you. If you are punished for saying something wrong to someone, they can have a drink with you.

Drinking instead: When someone is too drunk, someone takes the initiative to continue drinking instead of him, which is usually done by subordinates to protect their leaders.

There is also the height of clinking cups. The cup height of the younger generation or lower class must be lower than that of the elders or leaders to show respect.

Generally speaking, there are different drinking rules in different parts of Shandong Province, and it is difficult to unify drinking styles. Having mastered the above, there should be no big problem. The intensity of drinking varies from place to place in Shandong, especially in Jiaodong. It is said that there is such a formula: drinking in the morning "welcomes the morning sun"; (Because Jiaodong fishermen go out to sea early in the morning) Drinking at noon is "high morale"; Drinking at night "friendship grows"; Drink after ten o'clock in the evening "Auld Lang Syne".

The ratio of beer to red wine is that two beers equals one glass of red wine.

The ratio of beer to liquor is three times. Beer equals a glass of liquor.

Generally, the host will propose three cups first, and then the assistant will propose three more cups. Then the director will propose a toast in turn according to the status of the guests, and the assistants will cross each other in this order. Then the host will give the initiative to the assistant, and the host will wait for the guests to propose a toast.

Guests usually have to wait, and the host and assistant propose three toasts each, and then the host proposes a toast separately.

Still the classic sentence:

Wine is the appearance of water and the connotation of fire.

The bond of feelings, the source of strength!

Drinking is not everything, and it is absolutely impossible not to drink!

Too bad my wine is too strong! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

But don't drink too much and don't love wine, because health is the most important thing. ...
