Table manners are the rules of etiquette(礼仪) followed while eating a meal. They include how to use a knife, a fork and a spoon and how to eat with good manners.

The travel guidebook publisher, Lonely Planet, has collected some etiquette tips for you.

Russia

★ Keep your hands in sight(视野). It is not good manners to put them on your lap(膝). Keep your arms off the table.

★ Your wrists should be placed on the table while eating. Hold your fork in your left hand and knife in the right.

★ Leave some food on your plate to show that the host has given you enough to eat. Or the host will ask if you’d like to have more.

Portugal(葡萄牙)

★ Cooks are highly respected in Portugal.

★ Place your napkin(餐巾) on your lap, and don’t eat with your fingers.

★ Don’t ask for salt or pepper if it is not on the table. Asking for any kind of flavoring will make the cook unhappy.

Mexico

★ Whenever you catch the eyes of someone who’s eating, even a stranger, it’s good manners to say “Provecho”, which means “enjoy”.

★ Before you get seated, look for place cards, or wait until the host seats you. And you should say “Enjoy your meal.” Before you leave the table.

★ In Mexico, dining is more than a meal. It’s a social occasion---lunches are seldom quick and suppers can last for hours.
