Then, we can change our mood and try to find a western restaurant with a good atmosphere to experience a different date! But etiquette is indispensable. The following is for everyone. I hope I can help you!

1. Book a western restaurant in advance.

If you want to make a different date and choose a good western restaurant, making an appointment in advance is the most basic and important link. Make these preparations in advance, not only to have a leisurely meal, but also to live up to those exquisite foods. The appointment is made by the person in charge of the store, so be polite when making an appointment. In addition, when dating, tell the other person your name first, and then tell the time and purpose of the appointment.

Such as friends' birthdays or anniversaries and so on.

2. Services that can be requested when making an appointment

seat

According to the intended purpose, you can ask for suitable seats.

For example, if it is your girlfriend's birthday, you need a brighter seat. If your girlfriend likes a window seat, you need to explain in advance. And you can also prepare a few flowers in advance ~

gift

If you invite a special friend and want to surprise your precious friend, you can ask the person in charge to prepare a gift when making an appointment.

prescribe a diet

The food items included in the set meal can be replaced by other foods, and even if they can be tailored, they will help your friends' tastes.

3. Clothing etiquette

Clothing in harmony with the atmosphere of the restaurant is a basic etiquette to match the taste of high-end food and show respect to the service staff and other guests.

Perfume: Try not to wear strong perfume.

Clothing: Wear a suit and tie if necessary.

Jewelry: multifunctional watches such as stopwatches or alarm clocks are not suitable for western restaurants.

4. Seating order in western restaurants

business affairs

Whether it is a long square table or a square table, the chief position should be the seat directly opposite the door seat farthest away.

banquet

There is no designated chief in crowded places, just arrange the seats in advance.

The above is etiquette. Please don't forget what I said if you dine in a western restaurant with a distinguished friend or dear person.

In addition, through the correct basic knowledge, not only can the other party spend their meal time easily and happily, enjoy the food in high-end western restaurants, but also promote mutual communication.

Etiquette guide for western restaurants

1. First of all, you must dress neatly and appropriately.

Even if you don't wear a suit and tie, men should wear coats, shirts and clean leather shoes when they go to high-end western restaurants. If it is a formal occasion for eating with foreign customers, a suit and tie are necessary. Women should wear suits and shoes with heels, not sandals.

2, sitting posture should be correct, not stiff.

After sitting down, if it is a chair with a backrest, don't put your back on it. Stand up straight, stand out, and keep your upper body straight naturally. Put your hands on your legs. Don't put your cheeks or elbows on the table with your hands. Your feet are naturally close together or slightly inclined.

Don't leave your mobile phone, wallet and keys on the dining table.

You can get together with friends casually, but you must remember this when you go to a high-end western restaurant. Because these are very distracting things, in order to show respect for dining companions, it is best to put things such as mobile phones in your bag.

If it's your treat, remember to let the guests order first.

If you invite others, especially women, to have dinner together, you must tell your partner in advance that this meal is on you today. When ordering, tell the waiter: "Please let my guests order first" to avoid misunderstanding.

5. Order the same number of dishes as your dining partner.

This can keep the pace of eating in line and avoid embarrassment.

6. If you treat, remember to prepare the bill early.

Experienced bosses will book the restaurant in advance, arrive 15-20 minutes in advance, or give the credit card to the waiter before taking a seat. If you are a guest, you should also arrive at the appointed time. Don't be late.

7. Don't tell the sommelier how much you want to buy.

All you have to do is say what kind of wine you like, or point out an acceptable price on the wine list, and the sommelier will recommend the wine according to this price range. In addition, don't pretend to know a lot about wine, which looks too artificial. Isn't quiet taste very good?

8. Don't return the wine.

If you don't like your wine, don't tell the waiter to return it. It's polite. After all, they have already opened a bottle for you. But if there is something wrong with the wine itself, you can explain the situation to the waiter and ask for a return or another wine.

9. Don't yell at the waiter.

If you have any questions about the waiter, you should use your eyes first. If the other person doesn't notice, you can raise your right hand and attract their attention with your slightly raised index finger.

10, know the location of the napkin.

Now, when eating, I usually put napkins on my legs. You can't start eating until the host puts away the napkins. If you want to leave for a while, you can put your napkin on the chair. After eating, put the napkin neatly on the left hand side * * * Don't fold it, don't put it on the plate * * *, but don't make it until the owner finishes eating.

1 1, know the purpose of various tableware.

In formal western food, tableware is usually placed like this. All kinds of knives, forks, spoons and wine glasses have different uses. Be careful not to use it wrong.

12, when eating, pay attention to your behavior at the table.

*** 1*** fork in left hand and knife in right hand. Cut the food into pieces to eat. Don't cut a lot at once;

***2*** Don't eat too fast, and don't let others think that you are in a hurry, especially when you are the host;

***3*** Don't talk with food in your mouth;

***4*** Wipe your mouth or hands with a napkin;

***5*** Don't take the bread in the air and put it on the bread plate;

***6*** When drinking water or alcohol, look at the cup.

13, don't eat your partner's food across the table.

Please keep this in mind when eating with strangers or on formal occasions. But dining with friends can be a little easier. You can send your partner some delicious food on a bread plate.

14, don't talk about business while eating.

Don't talk about business while eating, don't complain about colleagues or work, and don't spoil everyone's fun.

15, don't complain about the food.

Since someone invited you to dinner, as a guest, don't complain about the bad food and wine, but thank the host for his hospitality. This is a courtesy.

16, eating with customers, it is best not to take pictures of food.

Now that the circle of friends is so hot, everyone brushes beautiful women to brush food. How can you miss a good opportunity to shoot delicious food when you go to a high-end western restaurant? Eating with familiar friends, taking pictures has little effect, just keep a low profile. But if you have dinner with customers, you'd better not take pictures. If the customer wants to take pictures, of course you have to say yes.

17. If the order is not ready, it can be returned for redo.

If the order is not ready, you can ask the restaurant to redo it. Before returning the food, please be sure to tell your dining partner to eat first without waiting for you.

18, don't casually put the tableware on the edge of the plate after eating.

Knife and fork should be set to 1 1 vertically, which is a hint service and the waiter will accept it naturally when he sees it.
