How to taste western food culture? Explain in detail the six m's of eating western food.
After long-term discussion and summary, scholars who study western food think that we should pay attention to the following six M's when eating western food. The first is the Menu menu. When you walk into a cafe or a western restaurant, the waiter will show you to your seat first. When you sit down, the menu is the first thing that comes up. The menu is regarded as the facade of the restaurant and the boss has always attached great importance to it. Use the best materials for the cover of the menu, and some even use soft sheepskin to make all kinds of beautiful patterns, which are particularly elegant and exquisite. How to order good food? There is a little experience here, that is, after opening the menu, see which dish is named after the store name. Don't miss this dish. Because that restaurant won't joke about its reputation, the dishes they worked so hard to cook must be delicious. Everyone must order this signature dish. In addition, it should be noted that you should not treat the ordering problem of western food with the habit of eating Chinese food: that is, don't ignore the menu and let the waiter order for you. In France, even President Charles de Gaulle and President Destin have to look at the menu to order western food. Because looking at the menu and ordering food has become an essential procedure for eating western food, and it is an embodiment of an elegant lifestyle. The second is a luxurious and advanced western restaurant with music. Usually there will be bands playing some soft music, and ordinary western restaurants will also play some beautiful and elegant music. However, the most important thing here is the "audibility" of music, that is, the sound should reach the level of "seemingly hearing but not hearing", that is to say, you should concentrate on talking with your friends, but you can only hear it when you are resting and relaxing. You should master this temperature. The third is the emotional atmosphere. Eating western food pays attention to elegant environment and harmonious atmosphere. There must be music accompaniment, tables and chairs must be neat and clean, and all tableware must be clean. At dinner, the lights should be dim and there should be red candles on the table to create a romantic, charming and elegant atmosphere. The fourth is to meet, that is to say, you have to choose who to eat western food with. It is best to eat western food with friends, relatives or like-minded people. Eating western food is mainly to connect feelings, and it is best not to talk about business at the western food table. Therefore, in western restaurants, the atmosphere is generally very warm, and there are few red-faced scenes. Fifth, manners and manners refer to "eating" and "eating". Since you are eating western food, you should follow the western customs and don't do anything abrupt, especially dancing with a knife and fork in your hand, which will be "rude". Be sure to get the knife and fork right: take the knife in your right hand and the fork in your left hand. Cut the food into small pieces with a knife, and then fork it into the mouth. Generally speaking, Europeans do not change hands when using knives and forks, and always use the fork of their left hand to put food into their mouths. Americans put down the knife after cutting, and put the food into their mouths with a fork in their right hand. But at any time, the knife must not be sent to the entrance. At western banquets, the host will arrange for men and women to sit next to each other, and western gentlemen who pay attention to "ladies first" will show hospitality to ladies. The sixth is meals. An American gourmet once said: "Japanese people eat with their eyes, and the form of cooking is beautiful;" We eat western food with our noses, so our noses are very big. Only your great China people know how to eat with their tongues. " Chinese food takes "taste" as the core, while western food takes nutrition as the core. As for taste, it can't compare with Chinese food.
