By Gwen Lowe


When you meet with your long times friends and guests, it is always a good idea you visit a nearer restaurant and have some fun. Furthermore, when your close friend welcomes you to a dinner party, you must know how to present yourself while dining with them. It should always be in your mind the need to regulate your behavior while you are dining together. The best way to do it is by observing all the dining rules and etiquette guide provided.

Common knowledge discourages talking with food in your mouth. As a necessity, always avoid such unruly behavior when sharing meals with friends. It is bad manners to talk with food in your mouth. Every good mother has always taught her children to avoid this kind of behavior.

Another important factor you must observe is to never shout that you do not like the served table. Actually, this would disappoint your friends and it is not a good idea either. When the food is served, ensure you eat small bit by bit even if you were as hungry as a wolf. Always ensure you force yourself to eat it even though you do not like it.

Avoid eating the food pieces that accidentally fall on the table. Some people would not find this a problem especially when feasting on some of the most prestigious meals. You should portray your high level of discipline even if you were feasting on tasty chunks of chicken meal. It is always good to leave the piece that falls on the table or put it in another empty dish, but avoid eating it.

As you dine with others, always remember that the small things you do matter just as much as the big stuff. Avoid such behaviors as reaching out for things over the table and other plates. If you need something on the dinner table and cannot reach it, ask for it to be passed to you. This way you do not obstruct other plates of food or have to stand up and go get it yourself which is very unacceptable on a dinner table.

Another very ridiculous idea people have, is to pick calls while you and your friends are on the dining table. This behavior causes a lot of disruption to your friends. You should make it a habit of walking out to pick your calls. In addition, in the event that you are eating using bare hands, you should never touch your phone. It is even better you put it off before feasting.

Yet, another very absurd idea many people have, is blowing their nose while still on the dining table. This maybe is the worst lack of table manners you can ever have. When you want to sneeze, walk comfortably to a room and do it there. Otherwise, you would be surprised to find your friends leaving the food right there on the desk.

Always put the needs of others before yours whenever you dine with others. This is crucial especially when you are the host. Always try to finish your meals and thank the host for a great meal even when it is not one of your best experiences.
