1, seating etiquette
Dining, we should also pay attention to the corresponding etiquette. For example, when you take your seat, first of all, you should use your hands to pull the chair back some before sitting down, remember not to use your feet to push the chair away.
If you are a man, as a man, you should know that this time you should do is to pull back the chair to invite the lady to sit down. Before eating, pay attention to your sitting posture, sit straight, hands on your knees, do not put your hands on the table or fiddle with the cutlery.
2. Don't talk on the phone at the table
It's disrespectful to answer the phone at a formal dinner party at an inopportune time. If you're going to answer the phone, be sure to leave the table first and politely say, "Excuse me, I'm going out to get a phone call," to anyone dining at the same table.
3. Ordering
A standard Chinese meal usually starts with a cold dish, followed by a hot stir-fry, then the main course, then dim sum and soup, and of course, if you're feeling a little bored with your food, you can have a little more after-dinner dessert, and then finally fruit. You should also be mindful of your guests' tastes when ordering.
4, toast
Toast, to wait for the first three cups of collective activities after the end of the free activities of the toast can be carried out. Free activities, not really free, in order. The first few cups, are between the leaders to honor each other, the gods fight you just watch. You can not grab in front of the leaders to touch the cup, that would be a mess of the rules, both leaders are not happy.
5, consider the taboos of the profession
Different professions, there are some special taboos on the meal. For example, civil servants can not accept other people's treats during the execution of their work, and official banquets can not be eaten and drunk, not more than the required meal standard, and can not drink. Drivers can not drink during the work, can not let the guests, make mistakes.
In business occasions, do not order garlic, leeks and other food, so as not to affect the breath, delay work. A little more thoughtful, you can match some mints after the meal for freshening breath.
