You don't wipe your mouth with this napkin but put it on your lips softly and gently.

And after the meal, you have to fold it nicely and put it somewhere suitable.

3. We start eating together.

We can start eating only after everybody has been served their food. This isn't only valid for the main course, but for all off them.

No matter which spoon it is, you should always hold it in your right hand. After serving its purpose a spoon should never be put back on the table or somewhere around the plate.

You should put your spoon in the plate or the bowl, once you are done using it.

7. And about the forks and knives...

If you aren't using your fork with a knife you have to hold it in your right hand. Eating with your left hand is only allowed when your right hand is already full.

Taking your knife into your mouth is a big no-no. You should place your fork and knife at the center of your plate once you are done with them.

8. Don't eat in a hurry.

It isn't OK to first cut all of your food into smaller pieces and then eat these pieces right after each other. You should cut one piece, eat it, and cut another one.

9. No slurping or blowing with the soup.

One spoon of soup shouldn't be eaten twice. The soup left at the bottom of the bowl shouldn't be attempted to be finished.

10. The last slice of the bread in the breadbasket.
