WHICH DINING ETIQUETTES BRING OUT THE BEAUTY IN THE GREEK CUISINE?

If we talk about the dining etiquettes, then each culture has separate dining etiquettes. The beauty of the food lies in these dining etiquettes. The greek food can be enjoyed at its best if it is eaten by considering the dining etiquettes in mind. There is a famous Greek restaurant in Sydney which is known as the SYROS GREEK MEZE which not only keeps the dining etiquettes in mind but the etiquettes are also considered during the preparation of the food.

Do you know?

Although there are so many geek etiquettes which you need to keep in mind, the ones which have left me astonishing was the offering of the drink.

According to the Greek culture, you should never drink a glass. The more you drink, the more you will offer. In case you do not want to be offered much drink, then you are required to leave the glass when it is half full.

DO NOT BEGIN EATING UNTIL

You should not begin eating even if the food is served until the host asks you to do so.

DO NOT SWITCH THE CUTLERY

Greek people do not like to switch knives and forks. The knife is supposed to be in the right hand and the fork should always remain in the left.

Do you know

According to the Greek culture, you should cross the knives and the forks when you’re done with the meal.

Placement of the dining napkin

In case you are placing the napkin either on the table or on the plate, then it signifies that you are finished.

WHEN IT IS ABOUT THE DESSERTS

When the desserts are to be served, then the forks and the spoons are to be placed on the plate.

Do you know?

Greeks do not serve bread with butter on the plate.

WHERE SHOULD YOUR HANDS BE?

When you are not having anything or the food is not served yet, then your hands are supposed to be on the table and your wrists should be in the resting position while placed on the table.

PASSING OF THE DISHES

As per the dining etiquettes, you should pass the dishes to your left.

WHAT IF YOU HAVE EXTRA GRAVY OR SAUCE?

In ase you are having the extra gravy or the sauce, ten you are supposed to use the bread so that you can soak the excess water in it.

MAKE SHARING COMFORTABLE

Guests sometimes do not wish to be formal and they love to take the food from each other’s plate. In that situation you should feel free to do so.

ALSO, REMEMBER!

The dining etiquettes are not only considered when you are visiting someone’s place for dinner or lunch. Rather these are also considered when you are dining in some of the restaurants. If you want to know about the etiquette which you need to practice when you visit a restaurant, then please let us know. We promise you that our next blog will be on this topic.
