10 China dining etiquette
Usage of wet towel:

Usage of napkin:

When the host beckons for dinner, you can lay the napkin flat on the table and put it on your lap. Chinese napkins are completely open, and western napkins are open to double *. When you leave your seat halfway for some reason, you can fold your napkin slightly and put it back on the table, but never put it on the chair.

Usage of spoon:

Spoons are specially used for drinking soup, not eating, but can be used with chopsticks to help extract food.

When serving soup, you should put down your chopsticks and then use a spoon. After using the spoon, put it on your own saucer, not directly on the tablecloth.

Different from the way that western food drinks soup from the inside out with a spoon, Chinese food usually drinks soup from the soup pot to its own small soup bowl with a common big spoon, and then picks up the soup bowl and drinks it with a small spoon or directly at the mouth of the bowl.

Drinking method:

1. Bake

Host and guest should clink glasses first. If you accompany your boss to dinner, you should clink glasses with him behind him. Look at each other when clinking glasses to show respect.

Pour wine

When pouring wine, you should hold the bottle in one hand, gently hold the side of the bottle in the other, smile, concentrate, and slowly pour the wine into the other's cup gracefully and seriously.

Fill up the beer and let the foam overflow to the mouth of the cup; Sweet wine should be poured to 80% of the cup; Pour white wine or strong foreign wine to more than two-thirds of the mouth of the cup.

Pick up the wine

When someone pours you wine, you should hold the cup in one hand and the bottom in the other, smile at that person and thank him softly.

Ways to prevent drunkenness:

A toast that exceeds one's capacity for liquor is declined with a smile.

Eat something or drink a bottle of milk or eat greasy food before meals.

Have a drink first, then smile and be quick. Take the bottle from the other person and pour it for him, so that he won't have a chance to pour it for you.

Keep your glass full, because when it is empty, others will naturally pour it for you.

Pretending to be drunk and going to the toilet more can avoid some opportunities for drinking. Or apply a little blush and pretend to blush because of alcohol, which can also dispel other people's toast intentions.

Those who ask for flower protection can sometimes drink on behalf of male colleagues or acquaintances. I believe many people will be willing to show their manly demeanor to help you out.
