It is impolite to inform the host whether to attend before the banquet time is approaching. Whether to accept the invitation should be clear, not ambiguous, not ambiguous. Otherwise, if someone is absent at that time, the seats will be empty and food and wine will be wasted, which is a great disrespect to the host. Prepare for dinner after accepting the invitation.

Neither the host nor the guests should dress too casually. Before attending a more formal banquet, you should pay special attention to decorating your appearance to meet the etiquette requirements of the banquet occasion. Attending a banquet abroad has strict requirements for guests' dress, and sometimes the host even writes down the specific requirements for guests' dress in the invitation. Generally speaking, it is not appropriate to wear T-shirts, jeans, vests, western-style shorts, loose tops and fitness pants for dinner.

Go to dinner, neither too early nor too late, but on time. Arriving too early is easy to cause trouble to the host, but being late is very impolite, which will not only bring inconvenience to the host, but also make other guests feel unhappy. Upon arrival, you should wait in the lounge and sit with other guests under the guidance of the host. If there is no lounge, you can enter the banquet hall directly, but don't sit in advance.

It's impolite to sit at the table. When the host invites guests to sit down, the host and his wife should be the first to sit down, followed by other guests and accompanying personnel. When the elder and the lady sit down, the younger generation and the man should step forward and back their seats slightly. When they sit down, gently push the chair forward, and then sit still before leaving. Generally, you should sit down from the left side of your own direction. After the ladies, elders and high-ranking people at the same table sit down, sit down with other guests.

Don't put on makeup or comb your hair in public after sitting, especially it is impolite to take off your clothes, cuffs and loosen your tie when eating. In order to show their enthusiasm and concern, hosts and guests, guests and guests usually persuade each other to give food, but only verbally or by using public chopsticks. Don't always use chopsticks to pick up food for others, which will objectively cause the fact that saliva on your tableware is shared with others, making your respectful name reluctant.

It is impolite to eat quietly without talking. When eating, both the host and the guest should talk freely. Banquet is not only for eating, but also an important way of communication. Talk to as many people as possible and only talk to one or two old acquaintances from beginning to end. It seems impolite not to be interested in other guests.

Making fun of others or even having an argument will affect the conversation atmosphere, which is the most impolite. The content of the conversation should be pleasant, healthy and interesting. You have to find fault with the service and the quality of the dishes in the restaurant, which obviously shows your disgust for a certain dish, or some disgusting animals or sensory disgusting things, as well as diseases of yourself and others. Never wave chopsticks, knives and forks or chew food while talking or joking. None of this is appropriate. When talking with people, you should put down the tableware and stop eating.

Please pay attention to the section. Don't beat any tableware with chopsticks while waiting for dinner. When you leave the table temporarily, don't put chopsticks in the rice bowl, but on the table, plate or chopstick rack. When the host announces the start of the banquet and makes a speech, you can eat it. Never eat it in front of the host. Spread the napkin on your knees. If you leave the table halfway, you can put your napkin on the chair instead of the table. When eating, napkins can be used to wipe your mouth instead of wiping your sweat, glasses and tableware.

Never take the paper you carry with you out of your pocket and use it. Sometimes restaurants only prepare napkins for guests, and you can ask the waiter for more after use. When eating, don't wolf down and show greed, and chew slowly when tasting. If you see someone offering you food or wine and want to refuse it, don't push it back to the other person, but politely refuse it. When toasting each other, you should pay attention to knock gently, so as to make a sound and not damage the cups. When pouring wine for others, be sure to fill it up, but don't spill it.

Don't tell words or stories that may cause unhappiness to others and worsen the atmosphere of the party; Don't pick your teeth with your fingers and other unpleasant actions. If it is necessary to say goodbye in advance for temporary reasons, you should explain the reasons to the host. After the banquet begins, ask the host to quit halfway. Don't forget to apologize to the host and don't make the host feel embarrassed or unhappy.

It is impolite to leave immediately after dinner. The host should see the guests off at the door. If it is a family dinner, the host will send the guests downstairs to shake hands and say goodbye. Generally speaking, the order of farewell is that the male guests say goodbye to the male host first, the female guests say goodbye to the hostess first, and then cross-say goodbye.

Guests should thank their hosts for their warm hospitality and praise their thoughtful arrangements and exquisite dishes. No matter how boring the party you attend, don't show boredom or displeasure to the host when you say goodbye, otherwise it is impolite.
