How to set the fork of western food?

Western knives and forks are placed as follows:

1 Western food with an I-shaped or VIII-shaped knife and fork is the most exquisite, especially when eating steak, we should pay special attention to etiquette. When eating, it is 8-shaped. If you have a short break in the middle of a meal, you can put the knife and fork on the plate separately. The knife head and fork tip are in the shape of "I" or "I", and the knife and fork are facing yourself, indicating that you want to continue eating.

2. Hold a knife in your right hand and a fork in your left hand. The basic action after serving is "cut with a knife in your right hand, and then fork the dish with a fork in your left hand". Press the left end of the dish with a fork and fix it. After cutting the dish along the side of the fork with a knife about the size of a bite, the fork can be placed directly at the entrance of the dish.

3. It is very important to keep the angle between the knife and the plate around 15 degrees. Correct posture and proper angle are very important. Too high elbows on both sides will make the knife and fork angle too large and upright; On the other hand, if the elbow is too low, the knife and fork will fall off and it will be impossible to cut the food well. Relax your shoulders and wrists, don't open your arms, and keep the angle between the knife and the plate at about 15 degrees. Here is a summary of seven points: sitting and cooking; Relax your shoulders and wrists; Keep your arms close to your body; Elbows should not be too high or too low; Knife and fork tilt to the plate; Hold the dish tightly with a fork; Move the knife gently, but hold it firmly.

4. Don't change the position of tableware at will. You can't change the position of the set tableware at will, but if you are left-handed, you can exchange knives and forks when eating. Just after eating, the tableware must be placed according to the right-handed usage, and the handle of the knife and fork should be placed on the right side of the plate. The main reason for this is that we don't want to bring trouble to the service personnel.
