What etiquette should you pay attention to when eating western food? Eat Western food most pay attention to 6 M

Taste the western food culture. I suggest you have time to take a look at the Maxim restaurant in Chongwenmen. The western restaurant, which is decorated according to the unique French romantic style at the end of the 19th century, is gorgeous and elegant. The small band in the music pool plays classical music, waiter. It is a young man in a tuxedo. This is the tradition of the Marcos restaurant, which allows customers to be satisfied with the restaurant (restaurant layout), and then enjoy the rich (soft music), and then enjoy the delicious (delicious French cuisine).

Scholars who study western food, after a long discussion and induction, believe that eating Western food is the most important of six "M".

The first one is "Menu"

When you walk into the western restaurant, the waiter will take you to the seat. When you sit down, the menu will be sent first. The menu is regarded as the facade of the restaurant, and the boss has always attached importance to it. The best fabrics are used to make the cover of the menu, and some even use soft sheepskin to put on various beautiful patterns. It seems that there is something wrong with using the menu here, it should be called "recipe".

How to order good food, I can have a trick. I eat at Western restaurants at home and abroad. I often order dishes that are delicious and cheap. I am often praised by my colleagues. My method is to open the recipe and see which dish is Named after the name of the hotel, I often take it. I know that the chef will not make fun of his own name, so the dishes they make will definitely be delicious. Please be sure.

The second one is "Music" (music)

The luxurious and high-end Western restaurant has a band and some soft music. The small Western restaurant also plays some wonderful music. However, the most important thing here is the “audibility” of music, that is, the sound should reach “the extent that it can be heard and not heard”, that is to say, to concentrate on talking with friends, you can’t hear it. I can hear it, this fire must be mastered.

The third is "Mood" (atmosphere)

Western food is elegant and the atmosphere is harmonious. Be sure to have music accompanied by white tablecloths, flowers, and all utensils must be clean. In case of dinner, the lights should be dim and the table should have red candles to create a romantic, charming and elegant atmosphere.

The fourth is "Meeting" (meeting)

That is to say, with whom to eat Western food, this must have a choice, must be relatives and friends, people with similar interests. Eating western food is mainly for contact feelings, and rarely talks about business at the western table. Therefore, in the western restaurant, there are few scenes with red faces.

The fifth is "Manner" (courtesy)

Also known as "eat phase" and "eat state", in short, follow the Western customs, do not have abrupt actions, especially when holding a knife and fork, if you dance, you will be "lost." Use a knife and fork, it should be the right hand holding knife, the left hand holding the fork, cut the food into small pieces, and then use the knife and fork to send the inside. In general, Europeans do not change hands when using the knife and fork, and always use the left hand fork to feed the food into the mouth. The Americans cut the knife and put the knife in the mouth with the fork on the right hand. But at any time, the knife must not be able to feed the object. At the western banquet, the host will arrange for the men and women to sit next to each other, and the Western gentlemen who pay attention to the "women's priority" will show their diligence towards the ladies.

The sixth is "Meal" (food)

One of my American foodie friends once said: "Japanese people eat with their eyes, the form of cooking is beautiful, eating our western food is using the nose, so we have a big nose; only your great Chinese people know how to eat with their tongue. "Our Chinese food is centered on "taste". Western food is based on nutrition. As for the taste, it cannot be compared with Chinese food.
