Tell me about sitting on the wine table and making a toast.

Seating of wine tables: Generally, the number of tables and seats should be arranged in advance, so that people attending the banquet can take their places to show respect for the guests.

The position of the table depends on the distance from the main table.

Based on the master's desk, the right side is high, the left side is low, and the near height is far low.

As far as seating level is concerned, the following points are mainly considered:

First of all, with the host seat as the center, if the hostess participates in overtime, it will be based on the host and the hostess, from near high to far low, from top right to bottom left, in turn.

Secondly, we should arrange the guest of honor in the most distinguished position, that is, the host's right hand position, and the guest's wife is in the hostess's right hand position.

Thirdly, the host's accompanying guests should cross with the guests as much as possible to facilitate conversation and exchange, and avoid sitting together and snubbing the guests.

If you meet a foreign guest, the translator is usually arranged on the right side of the guest of honor.

The seats at the family dinner are relatively simple. The host and hostess usually sit opposite or cross, and the host usually has his back to the hall wall.

Left high and right low: when two people sit side by side, the right side is usually the upper seat and the left side is the lower seat. Because Chinese food is served clockwise, people on the right have priority over those on the left.

The seat in the middle is the most important: three people eat together, and the person sitting in the middle is higher than the person sitting on both sides.

Face-to-face: If someone is sitting facing the main entrance and someone is sitting with his back to the main entrance, according to etiquette, the person facing the main entrance should be the upper seat, and the person facing the main entrance should be the lower seat.

Good view: when dining in some high-end restaurants, there are often beautiful scenery or elegant performances indoors and outdoors for diners to watch, and the best viewing angle should be the seat.

It's better to be near the wall: In order to prevent the interference of waiters and diners, some middle and low-end restaurants usually have seats near the wall.

When the banquet hall has a dedicated rostrum, the dining table near the rostrum should be the main table. If there is no dedicated platform, sometimes the dining table on the back adjacent to the main frame is the main table.

Table direction is the same: if it is a banquet place, the main and guest positions on each table should be in the same direction as the main table.

Give priority to distance: when the table is placed vertically, the distance from the main entrance of the banquet hall shall prevail, and the farther away from the door, the higher the ranking.

Emotional communication between people is often sublimated when toasting.

When people in China propose a toast, they often hope that the other party will drink more wine to show their friendship with the host. The more guests drink, the happier the host will be, which shows that guests respect themselves. If the guests don't drink, the host will feel humiliated.

There are several ways to persuade wine: "Wen Jing", "Five Classics" and "Criminal Classics". These practices also have some negative effects.

Wen Jing: This is a reflection of the traditional way of drinking, that is, to persuade people to be polite and polite.

At the beginning of a banquet, the host often makes a toast first after saying a few words. At this time, both the host and the guest should stand up. The host should finish the wine in the cup first and put down the empty glass mouth to show that he has finished it, so as to show his respect for the guests. Guests usually drink it too. During the dinner, the host often goes to each table to propose a toast.

Reply: This is a guest's toast to the host.

Mutual respect: This is a "toast" between guests. In order to make the other person drink more, the toaster will find out all kinds of reasons why it is necessary to drink. If the toaster can't find any reason to refute, then he can only drink. While the two sides are looking for arguments, the emotional communication between people has been sublimated.

Substitute for wine: a way to avoid toasting without losing grace and disappoint the host and guests. I can't drink, or drink too much, but the host or guest should pay tribute. You can ask someone to change the wine at this time. People who drink for him usually have a special relationship with him. At the wedding, the best man and bridesmaid of both men and women are often the first choice for drinking, so be sure to drink a lot.

Law 9: This is a unique way of "toasting" in China. The reasons for "punishing alcohol" are also varied. Perhaps the most common is the "three glasses of wine" for those who are late for the party. Sometimes this is a joke.

Other aspects of banquet etiquette:

Don't start eating immediately after the guests are seated. Instead, guests should wait for the host to say hello, and then raise their glasses to signal the start. Guests can't walk in front of their hosts.

To be civilized, don't move chopsticks until it's your turn. Don't grab it in front of your neighbors. It's not advisable to take too many dishes at once. Chewing slowly is not only conducive to digestion, but also a etiquette requirement at the table.

Never put a big piece in your mouth and wolf it down, it will give people the impression of greed.

Don't be picky about food, don't just stare at your favorite food, or pile your favorite dishes on the plate in a hurry.

The action of eating should be elegant. Don't touch your neighbor while eating. Don't put the plate on the table. Don't spill the soup

Don't make unnecessary sounds, such as "purring" when eating soup and "banging" when eating vegetables, which are all vulgar expressions.

Don't spit bones and fishbones in your mouth on the table. Cover your mouth with a napkin, take it out with chopsticks and put it on a plate.

Don't eat the food on the table.

Don't play with bowls and chopsticks when eating, and don't take others directly with chopsticks.

Don't pick your mouth with your hands. When picking teeth with a toothpick, cover your mouth with your hand or napkin.

Don't let the tableware make any noise.

After eating, you can wipe your mouth with napkins, napkins or small towels sent by the waiter, but it is not advisable to wipe your head, neck or chest;

Don't burp or burp uncontrollably after meals; The guests can't leave the table until the host signals the end.

Always wipe your fingers and mouth with a napkin.

When eating fish, shrimp or crab, you often need to start work, which will inevitably leave some marks on your mouth. At this time, you should always wipe your mouth and fingers with napkins, otherwise it will look really unsightly and sometimes even nausea.

Don't make noise when eating: eat in small bites, and keep your mouth closed when swallowing, so as not to make noise and disturb others. Soup makes a sound easily.

Scoop soup with a spoon. If you want the soup in the spoon to cool before entering, please blow it quietly.

Don't lean over to get the food on the other side: when you are a guest, there are often many people and the table will be bigger. It is inevitable that there will be food on the other side, which you can't reach. Don't bend over to clamp at this time.

The best way is to ask the person closest to you to deliver it for you. Don't forget to say thank you when you receive it. When choosing vegetables, you should supply them in moderation, even if it is your favorite food.

Don't tell disgusting jokes: In order to adjust the dining atmosphere, some people often tell jokes, such as beer is horse urine and dung beetles is moving. Let diners listen to disgusting content.

Especially some people who like joking, they also like to say or watch some disgusting jokes at this time. It not only affects the appetite of diners, but also shows that a person is uncivilized.

Because we are close friends when eating, we often talk about other people's privacy or shortcomings without scruple. In fact, this is the most impolite behavior, because the other party will think, "Will you also talk about your uniqueness at other parties?"

When visiting, talking about some relaxing topics or some interesting things in the past can not only increase the dining atmosphere, but also deepen our friendship.

Little knowledge at the banquet:

Food crumbs stuck between your teeth: don't just use toothpicks at the dinner table, even if you feel a big stone in your mouth. Take a sip of water and see if things will get better. If you still feel clenched, please leave the table for a while and go to the bathroom. You can rinse your mouth well here or pick it with a toothpick.

Foreign body found in the dish: when a bug suddenly crawls out of the dish, don't make a sound, pick it out with a napkin and throw it away. Don't look at the person sitting next to you in high spirits or make a fuss, because such a move may ruin others' mood for dinner.

The smell of garlic and onions can attack people: if you eat too much garlic or onions, you may find yourself shunned by others at home, in the office or on a date. The following methods can help you solve the problem and let others breathe a sigh of relief: chew celery and swallow it; Cover your tongue and mouth with a slice of lemon; Rinse your mouth immediately and rinse your mouth twice more.

Smoking addiction spreads soot into the air.

Gay men who smoke should pay attention: (for example) Mr. Gao is a smoker and went to his classmate's house a few days ago. Halfway through the meal, Mr. Gao became addicted to cigarettes. He lit a cigarette at random, took a deep breath in enjoyment, and then stretched out a smoke ring. Smoke rings immediately spread to the whole living room, and soot also danced in the living room, and some still landed on the dining table. Mrs. Gao, a classmate sitting opposite Mr. Gao, coughed at the smell of smoke, and the chopsticks she raised stopped awkwardly in mid-air.
