Restaurant Manners • Observe general table manners. • Dress appropriate for the style of the restaurant. • If meeting guests, wait in the entry until everyone arrives. • Do not eat with your fingers unless you are eating “finger foods.” • Let your dinner company order first, then order something around the same price range. • If you are not paying for the meal, do not order the most expensive or least expensive item on the menu. • Do not apply make-up at the table. • Tip appropriately for the service. Always at least 15% tip. • Woman follow hostess, then man.
Table Manners • Keep elbows off the table • Serve guests first. Always offer second and thirds. • Do not push used flatware back on the table. Place it on the plate during the meal, then place it parallel on the plate when finished. Use the outermost eating utensils or flatware and work your way in through various courses during a meal. • Remove hats before approaching the table. • If you need to sneeze or blow your nose, excuse yourself from the table.
Table Manners • At a small dinner event, do not take a bite until everyone at the table has received a serving, unless the hostess directs otherwise. At a large dinner event, wait at least for one or two people to come to the table before eating. • When eating, try to keep the pace with everyone else at the table. • Take time to speak to the people you are dining with. Give them equal attention if there is more than one person at the table. • Be moderate in all you do: eating, drinking, laughing, talking and chewing, etc… • Always place the napkin in your lap before eating. When finished eating, place your napkin loosely next to the plate. Do not crunch it up or leave it in the chair.
Pyramid 1. Lay the napkin face down in front of you.
Pyramid 2. Fold the napkin in half diagonally. 3. Rotate the napkin so the open end faces away from you.
Pyramid 4. Fold the right end up to meet the far corner, ensuring the edge of this new fold lays on the centerline as shown.
Pyramid 5. Repeat the last step with the left side, folding the left tip up to the far corner, creating a diamond shape with a seam running down the center.
Pyramid 6. Turn the napkin over, keeping the open end facing away from you.
Pyramid 7. Fold the napkin in half by bringing the farthest point of the diamond up and back to the nearest point. 8. Turn the napkin over again, this time keeping the open end facing towards you.
Pyramid 9. Fold the napkin along the center seam and you have a neat, sturdy pyramid. If your napkin won't stand neatly then you may need a little starch.
The Arrow Napkin Fold This method of folding napkins is very simple and can be done with almost any napkin without a need for starch. It adds a flowing, elegant look to your table.
The Arrow Napkin Fold • Lay the napkin face down in front of you. 2. Fold the napkin in half and orient the open end towards you.
The Arrow Napkin Fold 3. Fold the far-right corner over to the center of the side that is closest to you. The edge of this fold should run down the center of the napkin. 4. Repeat the last step with the other side, folding the far-left corner in to rest along side the previous fold.
The Arrow Napkin Fold 5. Fold the right-flap out diagonally so that its outer edge runs even with the far edge of the napkin. 6. Repeat the previous step on the other side, folding the left-flap out diagonally to meet the far edge of the napkin.
The Arrow Napkin Fold 7. Slide the left and the right sides together, allowing the napkin to bend at the farthest point. This will cause the flat, center part to bow. Pretty easy, huh?
The Cone Napkin Fold This nice napkin design may have originated in Guam. An iron can be helpful.
The Cone Napkin Fold 1. Lay the napkin face down in front of you. 2. Fold the napkin in half diagonally
The Cone Napkin Fold 3. Fold the left-most corner diagonally so the point rests on top of the far corner.
The Cone Napkin Fold 4. Repeat the last step with the right side, bringing this fold evenly along to the last one.
The Cone Napkin Fold 5. Turn the napkin over, keeping the open ends pointing away from you.
The Cone Napkin Fold 6. Evenly fold the bottom third of the napkin up and press the it down well. An iron may be needed here.
The Cone Napkin Fold 7. Fold both the left and right sides back and underneath the napkin evenly to create the finished product seen here. That looks so nice I bet you just can't wait to smear food on it!
The Necktie Napkin Fold Now your guests can wipe food off of their expensive ties with... inexpensive ties! Isn't that special? This one's easier with limp napkins, but if you only have “stiffies” then an iron will make this simple to do. Remember that the larger the napkin is, the longer the tie will be.
The Necktie Napkin Fold 1. Lay the napkin face-down and orient it so that one of the corners points to you.
The Necktie Napkin Fold 2. Starting at the upper tip, fold the right side about 1/3 of the way diagonally to the left. Don't press the fold down yet.
The Necktie Napkin Fold 3. Repeat the last step with the left side and then adjust them both if needed so that both sides are symmetrical. Now press down the folds.
The Necktie Napkin Fold 4. Fold the right side in about 1/3 of the way starting from the upper tip, similar to what we did in the last two steps. Don't press it down yet.
