Generally speaking, the seating order is "Zuo Zun Dong" and "Zun Men". If it is a round table, the host and guests face the gate. Judging from the distance from the host and guest, the closer to the host and guest, the more respected the status, and the same interval is that the left side is better than the right side.
If it is a square table, if there is a seat facing the gate, the seat on the right side of the gate is the host and guest. If it is not facing the gate, the right seat on the east side is the chief.
