Banquets in modern hotels have absorbed the right-first custom of Western banquets. The first guest of honor sits on the right side of the host, and the second guest of honor sits on the left side of the host or sits on the right side of the second host.

After the guests are seated, the host must propose a toast and the guests must stand up to accept it.

Every time a dish is served, the host must be attentive to the dish.
