At present, the general etiquette rules of western food shops are not strict, just use knives and forks. If you don't know how to order in a western restaurant, you can order a steak set meal so that you don't have to worry about what you want. The contents of the set meal will be listed in the menu. There are many kinds of steaks, such as filet mignon, sirloin steak, T-shaped steak and so on. The price difference is quite big, depending on what you can afford. The waiter who eats steak will ask you about the degree of maturity and sauce. The formal statement is that the steak is only one, three, five, seven and well-done, and there is no such thing as eight or six. The choice of fully cooked meat is overdone, and the average person below five points will find it difficult to accept. You can choose medium-rare meat. For the sauce, you can choose black pepper sauce. Unless you are very spicy, this is the most popular and generally accepted taste. Note that the steak in western food is cooked without seasoning, so even with sauce, it will feel very light. If you can add your own salt and pepper (the seasoning bottle is on the table), you should drink red wine according to the formal custom, but China people are generally unaccustomed to it and the price is relatively high. Just choose your favorite and acceptable drinks. Don't be too bound by the so-called western etiquette. If you really care, you can choose to drink ice water.

The basic action of cooking after serving is "cutting with a knife in your right hand and fork with a fork in your left hand". Press the left end of the dish with a fork and fix it. After cutting the dish into a bite along the side of the fork with a knife, the fork can be left directly at the entrance of the dish. Simply put, it means "hold it down with a fork first and then cut it with a knife". If you want to cut vegetables smoothly, start with your posture! Correct posture and proper angle are very important. Too high elbows on both sides will make the knife and fork angle too large and upright; On the other hand, if the elbow is too low, the knife and fork will fall off and it will be impossible to cut the food well. Relax your shoulders and wrists, don't open your arms, and keep the angle between the knife and the plate at about 15 degrees. Here is a summary of seven points: sitting and cooking; Relax your shoulders and wrists; Keep your arms close to your body; Elbows should not be too high or too low; Knife and fork tilt to the plate; Hold the dish tightly with a fork; Move the knife gently, but hold it firmly. This not only makes it easy to cut food, but also looks quite elegant. The way the knife moves is also reasonable. First, the fork in the left hand is hard, and then the knife is gently moved. Be careful not to use force when pulling the knife backward, but to use force when pressing the knife forward, so as to cut the food neatly.

If the elbows on both sides are too high, the angle between the knife and fork will be too large to cut the food neatly. Don't tilt the knife and fork too much. The fork can be changed freely according to the characteristics of cooking, which is convenient for eating. When eating with a fork, the back of the fork must face up. However, when eating with a spoon, the fork should face up. Unlike chopsticks, the fork can rotate up and down according to the cooking characteristics, which is convenient to use.

You can't change the position of the set tableware at will, but if you are left-handed, you can exchange knives and forks when eating. Just after eating, the tableware must be placed according to the right-handed usage, and the handle of the knife and fork should be placed on the right side of the plate.
