It can be divided into zigzag, T-shaped, zigzag, herringbone and so on. Generally, the arrangement is designed according to the number of people attending the banquet.

Western etiquette

Rank method

The location of western food is very different from that of Chinese food. Chinese food usually uses round tables, while western food generally uses long tables. If both men and women go to the restaurant together, the man should ask the woman to sit on his right, and be careful not to let her sit in the aisle where people come and go. If there is only one seat by the wall, please ask the lady to sit down, and the man will sit opposite her. If two couples are having dinner, the ladies should sit by the wall and the husbands should sit opposite their wives. If two men accompany a woman to dinner, the woman should sit between the two men. If two people of the same sex eat, the position near the wall should be given to the elderly among them. There is also a rule in western food, that is, everyone should enter and exit the seat from the left side of the seat. When holding a formal banquet, the seating arrangement is in accordance with international practice: the level of the table is based on the distance from the main table, the right side is high and the left side is low, and the table card should be placed when the table is long. The seat at the same table also depends on the distance from the host's seat. The western custom is that men and women have intercourse with each other, even husband and wife.

If you attend a formal banquet, the hostess will spread a napkin on her lap to indicate the start of the banquet. Napkins hint at the beginning and end of the party. In the west, there is a principle that women are preferred. The hostess is the first guest at the western banquet. If the hostess doesn't sit, no one else can sit. The hostess spread the napkin on her lap to show that everyone can start. Instead, the hostess will put the napkin on the table, which marks the end of the party.

When you start eating, don't eat too much. If there is not enough food on the plate, you can take it again. Before eating, you should open your napkin and spread it on your lap. After eating, you should fold it on the right side of the plate. You shouldn't put it on the chair, and you shouldn't be mistaken for unused. Napkins can wipe your mouth, not your sweat.

The position of a lady's handbag when eating.

In Europe and America, women usually put their handbags directly on the floor at their feet after they sit down. It's impolite to put handbags on the table because of the way they handle them. Therefore, except for the small handbags for evening wear, no other handbags can be placed on the dining table.

So, where should I put my handbag? There may be many people who are not used to putting their handbags on the floor. At this time, you can put your handbag between your back and the chair, or on your knees (under your napkin). If there is no one around, you can put it on the chair or hang it on the bag rack.

Serving order

Western food and Chinese food are quite different in menu arrangement. Take banquets as an example. In addition to nearly 10 kinds of cold dishes, Chinese banquets are rich in 6-8 kinds of hot dishes, plus snacks, sweets and fruits. Although western food has six or seven dishes, it looks very complicated, but each dish is generally only one. For many people, ordering western food is still a stranger. The following is the order of serving western food for your reference.

1. Roof

Also known as appetizers, there are usually cold dishes and hot appetizers. Common varieties include caviar, foie gras, smoked salmon, cocktail cup, creamy chicken crisp box, Tujia snail and so on.

2. soup

It can be roughly divided into clear soup, cream soup, vegetable soup and cold soup. There are oxtail clear soup, various cream soups, seafood soups, American clam soups, Italian vegetable soups, and Russian Luo Songtang. French onion soup.

3. Additional dishes outside the main dish

Aquatic vegetables and eggs, bread and crispy box vegetables are usually called side dishes. Western food pays attention to the use of special sauces when eating fish dishes, including tartar sauce, Dutch sauce, hotel sauce, white cream sauce, archbishop sauce, American sauce, sailor fish sauce and so on.

Step 4: Main course

Meat and poultry dishes are the main courses. Among them, beef or steak is the most representative, and the seasonings used in meat dishes mainly include Spanish juice, concentrated sauce, mushroom juice, shredded white juice and so on. The raw materials of poultry dishes are taken from chickens. Duck and goose; The most common poultry dish is chicken, which can be cooked, fried, roasted and simmered. The main sauces are curry juice and cream juice.

5. Vegetable dishes

Can be arranged after the meat dishes, but also can be eaten at the same time with the meat dishes. Vegetables are called salads in western food. The salad served with the main course is called raw vegetable salad, which is usually made of lettuce, tomato, cucumber and asparagus. There is also a kind of fish, meat and eggs, which are generally not flavored.

6. dessert

The dessert of western food is eaten after the main course and can be counted as the sixth course. It really includes all the food after the main course, such as pudding, ice cream, cheese, fruit and so on.

7.coffee

Coffee usually contains sugar and whipped cream.

There's no need to order them all. It's impolite to order too much and not finish it. A slightly standard restaurant welcomes guests who only order appetizers. Appetizers, main courses (fish or meat) and desserts are the most suitable combinations. Ordering is not an appetizer, but a favorite main course, and then a soup suitable for the main course.

How to use a knife and fork

When using a knife and fork, you should hold the knife in your right hand and the fork in your left hand. Cut the food into small pieces with a knife and fork and send it to your mouth. Generally speaking, Europeans do not change hands when using knives and forks, and always use the fork of their left hand to put food into their mouths. Americans put down the knife after cutting, and put the food into their mouths with a fork in their right hand. But at any time, the knife must not be sent to the entrance. At western banquets, the host will arrange for men and women to sit next to each other, and western gentlemen who pay attention to "ladies first" will show hospitality to ladies.

1. When eating, the plate is in the middle, so the knife and fork are on the right side of the plate and the fork is on the left. Generally, people who write with their right hand naturally take a knife or spoon in their right hand, a fork in their left hand and a cup in their right hand when drinking western food.

2. Put knives and forks on the dining table, generally no more than three pairs. For a set meal with more than three courses, you must put a new knife and fork after the meal.

3. Knife and fork are used from outside to inside (that is to say, they are placed from outside to inside in advance according to the order of use).

When eating, the left and right hands usually cooperate with each other, that is, one knife and one fork are used in pairs. With some exceptions, when drinking soup, put the spoon on the right-hold the spoon in your right hand. Oysters are usually eaten with an oyster fork in their right hand.

Knife and fork have different specifications and sizes according to different uses. When eating meat, whether you want to cut it with a knife or not, you should use a big knife. Use a medium knife when eating salads, sweets or some appetizers. The fork or spoon usually varies with the size of the knife. Use a large spoon for soup and a small spoon for coffee and ice cream.

6. Don't serve others with your own tableware.

7. Don't stick a fork in the food entrance, but shovel the food. Of course, this rule has become less strict now. The Englishman holds a fork in his left hand, with the fork pointed down, and puts the meat upright and sends it to his mouth. If it is a burnt vegetable, he puts it on a fork and sends it to his mouth. Americans cut meat in the same way, then put down the knife in their right hand and put it under the meat with the fork pointed upward. Without a knife, he scooped up meat and sent it to his mouth, eating burnt vegetables in the same way.

8. If you don't need a knife to eat a dish, you can also hold a fork in your right hand. For example, Italians eat noodles with only one fork and do not need other tableware, so it is simple and convenient to hold the fork with their right hand. If there are no large pieces of meat to cut, such as vegetarian dishes, just vegetables and non-staple foods that don't need to be cut, then it is reasonable to eat with a fork in your right hand.

9. To be on the safe side, don't tell me what to do when holding a knife and fork. It is polite to put a knife and fork on a plate when talking or talking. This is also a kind of respect for the people next to you.

10. Forks and spoons can be put in your mouth, but knives can't be put in your mouth, whether there is food on them or not. In addition to the etiquette requirements, the knife entrance is also dangerous.

In western food, the placement of knives and forks is also meaningful, and your dining wishes can be conveyed through the placement of knives and forks:

1. I haven't finished eating: the plate is gone. If you want to continue eating, open the knife and fork in a triangle, then the waiter won't take your plate away.

I'm finished: you can put the knife and fork on the same side of the plate in parallel. At this time, even if there is something left on your plate, the waiter will know that you have finished eating and will take the plate away at the right time.

Please give me some more food: the plate is empty, but you still want to eat. Open the knife and fork in a figure of eight, and the waiter will give you more food.

Note: only applicable to parties that allow extra meals or when eating dishes that may be added. If there is only one dish in each dish, there is no need to put the tableware like this.

How to use napkins

After ordering, before the appetizer is served, open the napkin, fold in one third, and let two thirds lie flat on the leg to cover the leg above the knee. It's best not to stuff napkins into the neckline.

If you want to continue eating when you come back halfway, the napkin should be placed on the chair surface of the seat. This is a signal to tell others present, especially the waiter, that you have something to do outside and continue eating when you come back. Put the napkin on the table to indicate the end of the meal.

What can it wipe on the napkin? It will stick to your mouth. When eating western food, if you want to talk to others, you must touch your mouth with a napkin before talking to others. Napkins can wipe your mouth, but you can't wipe your knife and fork or sweat.
