ABSOLU ELLE, leading pageant training and personality development academy in India writes on topics week after week related to pageantry and personality development.
Today we bring DINING ETIQUETTE as a part of personality development course.
Few tips on dining etiquette:-
Most important is placement of your crockery. The plates are kept in BMW position, easy to remember also. From left to right. You start with bread plate, then main course plate and then glass for water. That’s how we call it BMW.
Fork to the left of plate and knife and spoon to the right side. Napkin to the right of plate.
Few things to remember while ordering food:
- Do not snap your fingers or whistle to call for order.
- Before you call for ordering food, make sure you have decided well on what to order. Don’t start discussing and arguing at the table.
- Use the cloth napkin to keep it on your lap before you start eating. Make sure you don’t wipe your face or plates with that napkin.
Things to remember once the food is on table:
- Concentrate on eating
- Dont make noise when you chew your food.
- If someone asks for bowl of food which is on other end and white its being passed dont try to break in and serve food for yourself, once the person who asked for it is done you can take it
- No selfies and making noise when you are at the restaurant.
- Try avoiding phone calls.
- Speak softly.
- Compliment the chef and their services before leaving the restaurant.
