First, the placement of tableware The formal western food is soup, salad, fish, meat, dessert, smoothie (or refreshing drink) and coffee. The placement of tableware is related to the order of eating.
There is a small plate with napkins in the middle of the main course. There is a fork on the left, and the fork is up. On the right is a knife with a sharp edge pointing at the plate.
The left and right knives and forks appear in pairs and are used from outside to inside, mainly for salads, fish, red meat or poultry.
In the upper left corner are bread plates and butter knives. At the top is a dessert knife and fork. There are usually four kinds of goblets in the upper right corner: water glass, red wine glass, white grape glass and champagne glass.
Second, napkins napkins are usually rolled up and placed on a plate. After sitting down, the napkin is spread directly on the thigh.
Third, the knife and fork left fork, right knife. The use of knives and forks is divided into European and American. European style means eating and cutting, and not changing hands in the middle. The American way is to cut a small mouth first, then put down the knife, eat with the right fork, then put the fork back to the left hand, then cut a stutterer with the right hand, and so on.
Fourth, after the bread is ordered, the waiter will order the bread first, tear the bread into the size of the upper left bread plate, pick up the butter knife, and spread the butter on the bread to eat the bread.
5. Soup and salad are followed by soup or salad. Use the spoon on the right side of the plate and the outermost salad knife and fork on both sides. When drinking soup, scoop it out with a spoon in your right hand. Don't spoon too full.
6. This is the main course of fish and meat. Usually, we eat fish first and then meat. Knife and fork are taken from the outside. If we forget the order, remember that the blade is toothed, not a meat cleaver.
7. Dessert Finally, it's time for dessert. The cute little knife and fork on it is used to eat delicate desserts.
8. The difference between a glass and a glass is that the biggest one is water, followed by wine, the small one is white wine, and the slender one is champagne. You don't have to hold the cup in your hand, just hold the cup handle with your fingers, which is elegant and does not affect the taste of your hand.
