Table manners

In different countries, there are different table manners. For example: in China, Chinese people use chopsticks to eat their food; and use a soupspoon to have their soup.People usually try not to make any loud noise when they have their meal!

Let me show more examples. In Japan, people use chopsticks, too. But when they eat noodles there, they would make a loud noise. It means they praise the chef with their eating noise.

In France, people always have formal dinners. In a formal dinner, people use forks, knives, a soupspoon, a side plate, a plate, a serviette and a dessert spoon. Sometimes, clients usually use small forks for dessert. When they eat, they mustn't make any noise to show that they are gentle.

I have shown three examples. Hope you can know more about table manners! I will show you a website about table manners, enjoy it!
