Rules on the wine table:

(1) If you really can't drink it, don't take the first bite, and eat it while holding a rice bowl

(2) If you are sure you want to drink it, don't put ink on it, and then there are rules

Rule 1: Although the wine table is "affectionate and stuffy; Love is shallow, lick it. "But never talk about it when drinking.

rule 2: hide your strength and hide your strength, and never fill it up as soon as you get on the wine table.

rule 3: it's the leaders' turn to respect each other after drinking.

Rule 4: Many people can respect one person, and never one person can respect many people unless you are a fucking leader.

Rule 5: Respect others by yourself. If you don't clink glasses, how much you drink depends on the situation, such as the drinking capacity and drinking attitude of the other party. You must never drink less than the other party. You should know that you respect others by yourself.

Rule 6: Respect others by yourself. If you clink a glass, say, I'll finish it, and you'll get pregnant if you like.

Rule 7: Since you are in a humble position, remember to drink more for the leader. Don't drink for the leader blindly, that is, you have to replace him, and you have to pretend that you drink because you want to drink instead of for the leader. For example, leader A can't be a good drinker. You can stop people who are going to worship leader A by beating around the bush.

Rule 8: Pick up the glass (beer glass), grab the glass with your right hand, and pad the bottom of the glass with your left hand. Remember that your glass is always lower than others. If you are a leader, be sensible and don't put too low, otherwise how can you be a man below?

Rule 9: If there is no special person present, you'd better touch the wine in the right order, and don't show favoritism.

rule 11: clink glasses, toast, and make a statement, otherwise, why the fuck should I drink your wine?

Rule 11: Don't talk about business on the table. After drinking well, the business will be almost the same, and everyone will know clearly in their hearts, otherwise people will not be open to drinking with you.

Rule 12: Don't pretend to be crooked, say something wrong, do something wrong, don't plead, and consciously punish alcohol is the last word.

Rule 13: If, purely if, there is not enough wine, put the wine bottle in the middle of the table and let people refill it. Don't pour the wine one by one foolishly, or what will the people behind you do if they don't have wine?

Rule 14: There must be a stuffy glass of wine at the end, so don't leave your glass empty. You can't run away ~

Rule 15: Be careful not to slip up after drinking, don't talk big, don't lose your manners, don't spit, throw chopsticks around, don't finger around, drink soup, don't fart and burp, don't hold back and go to the toilet, no one will stop you.

Rule 16: Don't talk about "I can't drink" (if you drink), lest others accuse you of hypocrisy. Believe it or not, people can really tell whether they can drink.

Rule 17: The leader drinks with you to give you face. No matter how much the leader wants you to drink, do it yourself first. Remember, keep your hands and glasses low.

Rule 18: Peanuts are a good thing for drinkers. Keep a clear head, it is indispensable to be caring and attentive after drinking. A cup of yogurt, a cup of hot water and a hot towel all show your care.

If you can't drink

1, don't take the initiative to attack, and implement the strategy of defending as the attack;

2. Put two large glasses in front of the table, one with white wine and the other with mineral water. Drink a small small wine cup and drink water frequently. When the host and guest are basically drunk for 8 minutes at the wine table, you can take the initiative to replace the wine with water.

3. After a toast, don't swallow it immediately. Try to wipe your mouth with a napkin and spit the wine in it.

4. Eat some fatty and starchy foods at the bottom first, so it is not easy to get drunk when drinking;

5. master the rhythm and don't drink too much at once;

6. Don't mix several kinds of wine, which is particularly easy to get drunk;

7. Never turn the disc in the middle of the wine table when the leader picks up the food. It is a no-no on the wine table when the leader picks up the food.

8. When you are six minutes drunk, drink the vinegar from the vinegar dish in front of you, and then ask the waiter to add it.

9. Every time you drink a toast, fill it up, then pretend that you didn't hold the small wine cup firmly before drinking, and try to spill some, so that you can drink less every time;

11. Put half a cup of tea in front of you before drinking. Don't swallow it after drinking. Pick up the teacup quickly, and spit the wine into the glass when you drink water. Just change the water when it is full. It works!

-----------. Because one's hobbies and knowledge are different, the topic should not be too partial as far as possible, so as to avoid being the only one, being far apart and talking endlessly, which leads to digression and ignores everyone. In particular, try not to whisper to others, giving others a sense of mystery, which will often lead to the jealousy of "just you two" and affect the effect of drinking.

2. aim at the host and guest and grasp the overall situation

most banquets have a theme, which is the purpose of drinking. When you go to dinner, you should first look around at your expressions and prioritize. Don't drink just for the sake of drinking, and lose a good chance to make friends, let alone let some grandstanding drinkers disturb the host's meaning.

3, the language is appropriate, humorous

A person's talent, common sense, cultivation and communication manners can be displayed on the table. Sometimes a humorous language will leave a deep impression on the guests and make people feel good about you invisibly. Therefore, we should know when to say something, and it is crucial to use proper language and be humorous.

4. Don't try to persuade others to drink moderately.

There is always a phenomenon of persuading others to drink more at the wine table. Some people always like to use the wine field as a battlefield and try their best to persuade others to drink more, thinking that it is unrealistic not to drink enough.

"judging heroes by wine" is ok for people who drink a lot, but it is difficult for those who drink a little. Sometimes, if you persuade them too much, it will completely destroy the original friends' feelings.

5. Toast in an orderly way, with clear priorities

Toast is also a science. Generally speaking, toasting should be in the order of age, position and the identity of the guest and the host. Before toasting, we must fully consider the order of toasting and distinguish between primary and secondary. In order to drink with people you don't know, you should first inquire about your identity or pay attention to what others call you, so as to avoid embarrassing or hurting feelings.

when toasting, you must grasp the order of toasting. If you want a guest at the table, you should be more respectful to him, but it should be noted that if there are people with higher status or older people present, you should not only be respectful to those who can help you, but also toast the venerable elders first, otherwise everyone will be embarrassed.

6. Look at words and deeds, understand people's hearts

If you want to get everyone's appreciation on the wine table, you must learn to look at words and deeds. Because of communication with people, it is necessary to understand people's hearts, so as to play a good role on the wine table.

7, edgy gradually, sit firmly on Mount Tai

At the banquet, you should see clearly the occasion, correctly evaluate your own strength, don't be too impulsive, try to keep some sense of alcohol and talk, don't let others underestimate yourself and don't show yourself too much, choose the right opportunity, and gradually radiate your edgy, so as to sit firmly on Mount Tai, so as not to give others the idea of "this ability", so that everyone can't underestimate your strength.

-----------. If it's a round table, it's the host and guest facing the gate. In terms of the distance from the host and guest, the closer to the host and guest, the more respected it is. At the same distance, the left side is more respected than the right side. If it is a square table, if there is a seat facing the gate, the right seat on the side of the gate is the host and guest. If it is not facing the gate, the right seat on the east side is the chief.

if it's a big banquet, the arrangement between tables should pay attention to the chief, with 2, 4 and 6 seats on the left and 3, 5 and 7 seats on the right. According to the identity and status of the host and guest, the relatives and friends should sit separately.

if you are the host, you should arrive early, then wait at the door and show the guests seats. If you are the invitee, you should be seated according to the host's arrangement.

generally speaking, if your boss is present, you should lead the boss to the main seat and ask the customer to sit at the left side of the main seat at the highest level. Unless the host's leadership level is very high.

2-order

If time permits, you should wait for most guests to arrive, circulate the menu to the guests and invite them to order. Of course, as a business banquet, you will be worried about the budget. Therefore, to control the budget, it is most important for you to do more homework before cooking. It is more important to choose a suitable place for guests, so that guests can greatly understand your budget. Besides, generally speaking, if you pay the bill and the guests are not too embarrassed to order, you will be the master. If your boss is also at the banquet, don't let him/her order because he respects him or thinks that he is experienced in socializing and eats too much, unless he/she asks for it on his/her own initiative. Otherwise, he will feel that he is not decent enough.

if you are a party goer, you should know that you should not be too active in ordering, but let the host order. If the other party kindly requests, you can order a dish that is not too expensive and not taboo. Remember to ask the people at the table for advice, especially "Is there anything you don't eat?" Or "What do you prefer to eat?" Make everyone feel taken care of. After ordering, you can ask "I ordered, I don't know if it suits several people's tastes", "Would you like something else" and so on.

when ordering, be sure to have a clear idea. When ordering food, you can look at the personnel composition according to the following three rules

. Generally speaking, one dish per capita is a general rule. If it is a dinner party with more men, the amount can be increased appropriately.

second, look at the combination of dishes. Generally speaking, a table of dishes is best to be well-prepared, cold and hot, and try to be comprehensive. If there are more men on the table, you can order more meat, and if there are more women, you can order more light vegetables.

Third, look at the importance of the banquet. If it is an ordinary business banquet, an average dish is acceptable from 51 yuan to 81 yuan. If the object of this banquet is a key person, then order a few dishes with enough weight, such as lobster, swordfish and shad, and then serve abalone, wing powder and so on.

another thing to note is that when ordering, you should not ask the waiter about the price of the food or bargain, which will make your company look a little petty in front of customers and customers will feel uncomfortable.

attachment: Chinese food ordering instructions-three excellent and four bogeys

A standard Chinese meal usually starts with cold dishes, followed by stir-frying, followed by the main course, then snacks and soup. If you feel a little tired, you can order some dessert after dinner and finally serve a fruit plate. When ordering food, we should take into account the dishes of each procedure.

Priority dishes

First, dishes with Chinese characteristics. When entertaining foreign guests, we should pay more attention to this one. Such as fried spring rolls, boiled dumplings, steamed dumplings, lion's head, diced chicken with peanuts, etc., are not delicious, but they are highly praised by many foreigners because of their distinctive China characteristics.

second, dishes with local characteristics. For example, mutton in soup in Xi 'an, braised pork in Maojia, Hunan, stewed lion's head in Shanghai, and instant-boiled mutton in Beijing, when entertaining foreign guests there, I'm afraid these special dishes will be more praised than the same raw seafood.

third, the specialty of this restaurant. Many restaurants have their own specialties. The last special dish of this restaurant can show the host's care and respect for the invited guests.

when arranging the menu, we must also consider the dietary taboos of the guests, especially the dietary taboos of the guests. There are four main dietary taboos

1. Religious dietary taboos should not be neglected at all. For example, Muslims usually don't eat pork and don't drink alcohol. Buddhists in China eat less meat, which not only refers to meat, but also includes pungent food such as onion, garlic, leek and mustard. Some Buddhists who believe in Guanyin are especially forbidden to eat beef in their diet, which should be paid special attention to when entertaining Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan and overseas Chinese compatriots.

2. For health reasons, some foods are also taboo. For example, people with heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, arteriosclerosis, hypertension and sequelae of stroke are not suitable for eating dog meat. People with hepatitis should avoid eating mutton and soft-shelled turtle. People with digestive diseases such as gastroenteritis and stomach ulcer soup are also not suitable for eating soft-shelled turtle. Patients with high blood pressure and high cholesterol should drink less chicken soup.

3. People's dietary preferences are often different in different regions. For this, we should take into account when arranging the menu. For example, people in Hunan Province generally like to eat spicy food and eat less sweets. People in Britain and America usually don't eat pets, rare animals, animal viscera, animal heads and claws. In addition, when entertaining foreign guests, try to eat less hard dishes, and foreigners are less likely to spit out food that has been bitten into their mouths during meals, which also needs to be taken into account.

4. Some occupations, for some reason, often have different special taboos in catering. For example, national civil servants are not allowed to eat and be invited when performing official duties, to eat and drink at official banquets, to eat beyond the standards set by the state, and to drink alcoholic beverages. For another example, drivers are not allowed to drink alcohol during work. If you ignore this point, you may make the other party make mistakes.

3-Eating

People in China are generally very particular about eating, and they are also very particular about eating. With more and more attention paid to workplace etiquette, eating and eating at the business table are also more particular. Take Chinese food as an example to teach you how to be polite and elegant at the dinner table.

At the beginning of a Chinese banquet, the first wet towel given by the waiter is to wipe your hands. Don't use it to wipe your face. When lobster, chicken and fruit are served, a small water lemon with lemon slices or rose petals floating in it is not a drink, but for washing hands. When washing your hands, you can take turns to wet your fingers, rinse them gently, and then dry them with a small towel.

be polite when eating. Don't persuade foreign guests repeatedly, but introduce the characteristics of Chinese food to each other, and it's up to him to eat or not. Some people like to persuade others, and even help them. Foreign guests don't have this habit. If you are polite again and again, people may resent it: "I said I wouldn't eat it. What do you have to force me to do?" By analogy, attend a banquet hosted by foreign guests, and don't expect the host to give you food repeatedly. If you wait for someone to serve you food, you'll have to be hungry.

after the guests are seated, don't start eating immediately. Instead, guests should wait for the host to say hello and raise their glasses to signal the start. Guests can't get ahead of their hosts. To be civilized, you should wait for the dishes to turn to yourself before moving chopsticks. Don't grab in front of your neighbor, and it is not advisable to take too many dishes at a time. Chew slowly, which is not only conducive to digestion, but also a etiquette requirement at the table. Never put a large piece in your mouth and wolf it down, which will give people the impression of greed. Don't be picky about food, don't just stare.
