1. be Sure to put a napkin on your lap, you will need it to wipe your lips and fingers during lunch.

2. when dinner is finished, put a napkin next to the plate, if it has fallen on the floor, do not pick it up, ask the waiter to bring another one.

3. A glass of wine hold with three fingers by the stem. That’s what real winemakers do. First, you will not stain the glass with your fingerprints, and secondly, the temperature and taste of the wine will not change from the heat of your hands.
Fill your wine glasses less than half full.

4. butter and olive oil should be cut off or poured into your plate from a common vessel. Also, you should not spread the whole piece of bread, but the one that you can put in your mouth.

5. the Knife is in the right hand and the fork is in the left. The index finger is placed on the base of the device. You can only swap appliances if you are looking at a crumbly side dish – for example, rice or mashed potatoes. You can easily help with a knife to put food on the fork.

6. Soups should be scooped with a spoon from yourself. This method will protect you from splashes on your clothes. After the end of the meal, the appliances should be placed on a serving plate. If it is not present, the devices are left in their own dish.

8. Ugly reach across the table for more, ask a neighbor for help.

9. when passing a dish, put it on the table next to the neighbor, and not give it to the hands. Also, we pass salt and pepper in one stand, without pulling out the salt or pepper separately.

10. the Bones should be removed if you put a berry or olive with your hand, if you used a fork, then you need to remove the bones with a fork. The exception is the bones from the fish, we extract them only with our hands.

11. to get rid of the non-chewable piece, you need to hold a napkin to your lips and get rid of it unnoticeably.

14. Do not forget that the devices in any case, if you have already used them, can not be put on the table. Only on a plate, regardless of whether you will still use them or not.
