| The best way to tell how
fast you should eat is to count 10 seconds between each mouthful. It
is bad dining etiquette to "inhale" your food. It will be uncomfortable
if you spend the remainder of the meal watching your guest eat.
|
|
| Do not slurp your soup, smack your lips, sniff, or chew with your mouth open.

|
|
|
| Do not use a toothpick at the table.
|
|
|

|
|
| The small fork is for salad, the large fork is for the main entree.
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
| Do not yawn while showing interest in your guest.
