First, after entering the box, put your shoes and toes outward, and then you can sit down. Men and women sit down in different ways. Men generally only need to sit cross-legged, that is, their legs are crossed and naturally stacked in front of them. This is more common. The woman sat on her side. After their legs are together, they kneel down first, then fold their legs horizontally and press them under their buttocks to keep their bodies stable. On special formal occasions, people will also use the front seat, that is, kneel on the ground with their knees together, with their hips touching their thighs and the whole person's center of gravity pressing on their legs.
Second, the use of tableware Due to the bubble economy of the 20th century, Japan once fell into the Great Depression. At that time, when going to a restaurant, the seats were charged and only one person was needed to serve, resulting in very few tableware used now, basically one for each person. When eating, they usually put the rice bowl on the left, the soup bowl on the right, and the chopsticks have special chopsticks racks. It should be noted that chopsticks can't be inserted directly into the bowl, nor can they be used to knock vegetables. This is very impolite behavior. If the chopsticks are placed horizontally in the bowl, you will be considered to have finished eating. When chopsticks are not in use, they must be put on the chopstick rack. If the leftovers are stained, you can clean them with paper, which is more in line with etiquette.
Third, try not to wear perfume when you go to a sushi restaurant. If the smell is too strong, it will affect the flavor of sushi, because Japanese restaurants are generally small and exquisite, and the space of sushi restaurants is limited, so guests will get close. If you use perfume in a sushi restaurant, it will not only hinder your food trip, but also make it difficult for people around you to taste delicious food.
