From table to Table
Just like food is different from county to county so are table manners. Before you
travel to another country there are a few things you should know about mealtimes
around the world.
At a table in England, it's rude to lick your fingers or your knife. You need to be
careful when eating soup. Don't slurp or make noise while eating it. It is also
impolite to start eating before your host has served everyone at the table. Try not to
put your arms on the table and, finally, don't take food from your neighbour's plate.
In France it is important to always say 'please' and 'thank you' to people serving at
the table. When eating bread, break off a piece with your fingers rather than use a
knife. When you are at a restaurant and haven't finished your food make sure you
don't leave your fork and knife on your plate as this is a signal for the waiter to
take your plate.
For most meals in Saudi Arabia people sit on the floor or at a low table with
cushions. Remember to cross your legs when you sit. Eat only with your right hand
because most Saudi Arabians think the left hand is not clean. It is polite to try all of
the food that the host serves. Saudi Arabians usually don't say much when they eat
as they really want to enjoy the food. Finally, it is okay to burp after a meal, as it
tells the host that you liked the food.
