I wonder if you have ever been to Japan? Most people come to Japan for group tours, and we go wherever the tour guides take us. However, if you have a self-help tour, you will definitely find that Japanese hotels have many "inside stories" different from those in China.
the cultural differences of this kind of food make many people feel very strange, and many people can't accept it. Here are the top 11 "inside stories" on the Japanese dinner table carefully selected. You can have a look. Which one do you find most unacceptable?
1. Shoppers are not allowed to pack the ingredients that can't be eaten.
Japanese restaurants generally don't provide moving and packing. If you order take-away food delivery. Many Japanese refuse to pack food for their guests according to the hygiene conditions, fearing that customers will take food home and take it overnight, which will cause physical and mental health problems. On the other hand, the ingredients in restaurants are packed home, which will make people think that the food in this store tastes bad, so most Japanese restaurants forbid customers to pack.
2. You also need to charge for the cold salad. You can't refuse to eat in Japanese cuisine.
The merchant sends everyone a dish of cold salad, which is likely to be a big piece of tofu, which may be stained overnight. You will find that the cold salad is also included in the final payment. This kind of small dish called "Tong Tong" has no choice, and it is mandatory. Most Japanese dishes will indicate that every customer has a "pass".
3. Girls can't go out to eat in Lamian Noodles alone.
Japanese restrictions on women are quite large. Girls alone, it is best not to go out to eat Lamian Noodles, especially young single girls. Mainly because Japanese beef and Lamian Noodles are cheap and convenient ingredients. Most of the people who come to Lamian Noodles to eat noodles are old men. If a girl enters the store alone, she can be suspected of having no friends. Many Japanese girls don't like this kind of eyes.
4. When eating Lamian Noodles, you must suck your noodles loudly.
When Japanese eat Lamian Noodles, you must hear the sound of sucking your noodles and drinking soup with your mouth open. This is called paying attention to the personal behavior of the boss of Lamian Noodles store, and telling the owner that I like your beef Lamian Noodles very much, and the soup base is also very delicious. But you can also make noise when eating Lamian Noodles, and please don't make noise when eating rice.
5. You don't need a spoon to drink soup, but you use wooden chopsticks.
Japanese people don't need a spoon to drink soup. If you see a spoon, it is usually used for drinking soup. Japanese people habitually use chopsticks to stir the ingredients in the pot, and then they eat rice and drink soup, which is often related to the sauce flavor. After a few minutes of standing, the sauce will deposit. When stirred with chopsticks, it is not easy to stir up a lot of waves, but it can also dissolve the flavor in the soup again.
6, don't eat with your face close to the bowl, you should pick up the bowl
Japanese eating etiquette stipulates that you must pick up the bowl when eating, don't put your work on the table, and then lower your head to eat. The main reason is that in traditional Japanese restaurants, everyone sits on the tatami either by sitting or kneeling. The tatami table is short, bending down to eat is very harmful to the body, and the sense is not very good, so the good habit of eating with a bowl is produced.
7. When eating sushi, you should take a bite.
A sushi restaurant is a Japanese classic, which means ingredients. Generally, sushi restaurants will make a bite of size, which is actually exactly the same size. Therefore, when we eat sushi, we don't have to bite off the ingredients and white rice. On the one hand, we can't appreciate the thorough food in the sushi restaurant, on the other hand, the white rice will disperse.
8. Kitchen wastes such as fish bones should not be put on the table, but should be put on the plate.
Japanese people like to eat seafood and fish. Except sushi, kitchen wastes are generally left when eating seafood. This kind of waste can't be stacked on the desktop, which is not beautiful. The owner or merchant can usually prepare a small plate for you to put the kitchen waste professionally. It is also conducive to students' sorting and garbage sorting and recycling.
9. Take the dishes on the right, first take them out with your left hand and then turn them to your right hand.
Sometimes, the tableware on the right needs your help to transfer them. At this moment, you can't take away the tableware on the right with your right hand. Generally, you take out the tableware with your left hand, turn it to your right hand and give it to others. If you happen to be holding a bowl and wooden chopsticks in your hand at this time, you must first learn to put down the tableware.
11. It's not easy for restaurants to give warm water, only cold water and tea.
Japanese people think it's impolite to serve boiling water at room temperature to guests because the ambient temperature fluctuates. Japanese people don't have a good habit of drinking boiled water. If warm boiled water is served to guests, it is easy for customers to have the illusion that cups have been put outside for many years. Therefore, Japanese restaurants usually prepare cold water or freshly cooked tea for their guests in advance.
