What is civilized dining?

Many times, people mistakenly think that civilized dining is about whether the words and deeds during meals are appropriate, and they simply regard the tributaries as the main body. The smallest food in exchange for the best dietary results is the standard for measuring civilized dining.

Civilized life can start from food, clothing, housing and transportation; diligence and frugality can start from small things around you.

Dining methods

Several common dining methods: banquets, family banquets, casual meals, work meals (including buffets) and other specific forms Etiquette norms.

A banquet usually refers to a social gathering in the form of a meal. It can be divided into two types: formal banquet and informal banquet.

A formal banquet is a grand and formal banquet. It is often a large-scale dinner event carefully arranged to entertain special guests. It is held in a relatively high-end hotel or other specific location and pays attention to the pomp and atmosphere. There are often very strict requirements and particularities regarding the number of attendees, dress, seat arrangement, number of dishes, music performances, speeches by the guests and hosts, etc.

Informal banquets, also called casual banquets, are also suitable for formal interpersonal interactions, but are more common in daily interactions. Its form is simple and focuses on interpersonal communication rather than scale and grade. Generally speaking, it only arranges relevant personnel to participate, and does not invite spouses. It often does not set excessive requirements on dress, seat arrangement, and number of dishes, and it does not arrange music performances or speeches by the guests and hosts.

A family banquet is a banquet held at home. Compared with formal banquets, the most important thing for family banquets is to create cordial, friendly, and naturally brewed coffee. Compared with instant coffee, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is difficult to control the heat, and the technical level is relatively high. In Western countries where people are accustomed to drinking coffee, whether or not they can make coffee is a major criterion for whether a housewife is competent.

Therefore, when guests come to a Westerner's home, they are often treated to freshly ground and brewed coffee, and the hostess herself makes and serves the coffee for the guests. It is both a courtesy and a class. Therefore, when encountering such kindness from the hostess, the guest must not forget to praise the hostess in person that the coffee she made for him "tastes great", otherwise it will be impolite.
