Invited to a wedding? behave well at the table!


THE ETIQUETTE A TABLE
The chair not too far nor too close: the elbows are always close to the body and hands, in the moments when they are not "occupied" with cutlery, never go in her lap.
Good manners suggest you never fill the glass to the brim, it pouring more wine if you have not already paid the first consumed.
You drink in small sips.
The ladies tend not to leave lipstick smudges on the edges, and they do not curl the little finger.
Posed the glass there dries mouth slightly, even in this case the ladies do so not to print the lips on the napkin.
Not raise his glass to ever who's pouring drink or covering it with his hand to refuse, just a slight nod.
It should not be placed into the mouth, but placed toward the mouth.
It is not blowing on food to cool them.
The food must never be touched with the fingers, never, under any circumstances, with the exception fruits and bread.
Avoid serve you by serving dishes with your cutlery, as usually there are of special on them.
Never bring food to the mouth with the knife, it only serves to cut the food.
To collect the last spoonfuls of soup is not never raised the pot to you, at most it can be positioned toward the center of the table.
Do you use the towel to clean cutlery and glasses, nor are examined in the light.
The napkin should never be introduced into the vest, and even less tied around the neck, you fold it partially, resulting in a long strip that is spread on his knees.
I do not ever folds at the end of lunch, but it poses to the left of the plate when getting up.
The use of toothpicks is prohibited to the ladies, and definitely not recommended for men. If you are not on the table should never ask.
When you leverage a toast in honor of a guest is not a sign of good manners refrain: If you are teetotalers just touched the glass with their lips, but also participate in the toast as not to offend the birthday boy.
For bread and breadsticks use of the knife is not allowed: help yourself their bare hands.
If the bread you are served on a plate that you will find at the top of your left, take care of riporvelo again after broken. Remember to break the only piece that you will eat in a single bite: the bread should never be chewed or bitten several times.
The hostess should never insist that a guest needs a second time, nor are given comments about the dishes on the culinary skills of the cook, and so on.
When discontinue eating or drinking for a word with your neighbor, let fork tips down) and knife on the plate with the handles apart and toes touching, not the tablecloth and place them either on the edge of the pot.
If you have finished eating cutlery will be placed together on the plate with the handles to the right.
