Some people may worry about the sanitation of the tableware, so it is very impolite to use the napkin to wipe the tableware, which can cause the embarrassment of the restaurant or the host. After you have finished eating, you should fold your napkin and put it on the table before you leave.
In the order of the use of knives and forks in Western food, the principle is from outside to inside. First use the cutlery placed on the outermost side of the dinner plate, and use a knife and fork after each meal. After eating, the knife and fork sit side by side in the middle of the plate, and the waiter will take the initiative to take the plate away. Besides being used for cutting food, dishes are also used to move food, because it is impolite to turn plates on formal occasions.
