The emotions you experience after dining in a cafe or restaurant depend almost 100% on your behavior.
So today we've put together a list of 10 valuable tips on restaurant culture.
1. Stop at the entrance and wait to be greeted instead of running around the hall looking for a free seat.
2. Before looking at the menu, decide on drinks - this way the waiter will be busy, and you will be able to quench your thirst faster and have time to study the dishes.
3. Don't keep quiet if you don't like certain foods - ask the waiter if they are included in your order.
4. There is no shame in asking what a dish with an unclear name is.
5. If you are going out to dinner with a large group, make sure to pre-order – otherwise you will have to wait an unforgivably long time.
6. If you have little time or, on the contrary, you are not in a hurry, inform the staff about this.
7. If you find out, to your regret, that the dish you want is not available today, don't take your irritation out on the waiter. Want to talk to someone about it? Invite the chef and the manager of the establishment.
8. Don't know what to do with a linen napkin? Place it on your lap and wipe your hands as needed.
9. Don't use the phrase "I'll have the best" etc., unless you are prepared for a hefty bill.
10. Don't jump to conclusions after your first visit to a place - give it a second chance.
