西方國家餐桌禮儀英語

　　餐桌禮儀，顧名思義，就是指在吃飯用餐時在餐桌上的禮儀常識，餐飲禮儀問題可謂源遠流長。以下是小編帶來的西方國家餐桌禮儀，供各位參閱。

西方國家餐桌禮儀英語

　　1)As soon as the hostess picks up her napkin (餐巾), pick yours up and lay it on your lap.

　　2)The Soup Course

　　Dinner usually begins with soup. The largest spoon at your place is the soup spoon. It will be beside your plate at the right-hand side.

　　3) The Fish Course

　　If there is a fish course, it will probably follow the soup. There may be a special fork for the fish, or it may be similar to the meat fork. Often it is smaller.

　　4) The Meat Course

　　The main course is usually served by the host himself, especially if it is a fowl (雞禽) or a roast which needs to be carved. He will often ask each guest what piece he prefers, and it is quite proper to state your preference as to lean or fat, dark (紅肉) or light (白肉).

　　5) Using Knife and Fork

　　The English keep the fork in the left hand, point curved downward, and bring the food to the mouth either by sticking the points onto it or in the case of soft vegetables, by placing it firmly on the fork in this position with the knife. Americans carve the meat in the same position, then lay down the knife and taking the fork in the right hand with the point turned up, push it under a small piece of food without the help of the knife and bring it to the mouth right-side-up.

　　6) Helping Yourself and Refusing

　　If a servant passes food around, he will pass the dish at your left hand so that you can conveniently serve yourself with your right hand. Never serve yourself while the dish is on your right; it is then the turn of your neighbor on the right. It is polite to take some of everything that is passed to you. But if there is something you may not like, you may quietly say: "No, thank you."

　　7) The Salad Course

　　A salad is eaten with a fork. There is usually a special one for the salad, a little smaller than the meat fork.

　　8) Bread and Butter

　　Bread is taken in the fingers and laid on the side plate or the edge of the large plate; it is never taken with a fork. Butter is taken from the butter dish with the butter knife and placed on the side plate, not on one's bread.

　　9) Other Things on the Table

　　When there are things on the middle of the table, such as bread, butter, jelly, pickles, nits, candies, you should not take any until the hostess has suggested that they be passed.

　　10) Leaving the Table

　　It is impolite for a guest to leave the table during a meal, or before the hostess gives the signal at the end. When the hostess indicates that the dinner is over, she will start to rise from her seat and all the guests rise from theirs at the same time.

　　如何使用刀叉：

　　1.進餐時，餐盤在中間，那么刀子和勺子放置在盤子的右邊，叉子放在左邊。一般右手寫字的人，飲用西餐時，很自然地用右手拿刀或勺，左手拿叉，杯子也用右手來端。

　　2.在桌子上擺放刀叉，一般最多不能超過三副。三道菜以上的套餐，必須在擺放的刀叉用完后隨上菜再放置新的刀叉。

　　3.刀叉是從外側向里側按順序使用(也就是說事先按使用順序由外向里依次擺放)。

　　4.進餐時，一般都是左右手互相配合，即一刀一叉成雙成對使用的。有些例外，喝湯時，則只是把勺子放在右邊——用右手持勺。食用生牡蠣一般也是用右手拿牡蠣叉食用。

　　5.刀叉有不同規格，按照用途不同而決定其尺寸的大小也有區別。吃肉時，不管是否要用刀切，都要使用大號的刀。吃沙拉、甜食或一些開胃小菜時，要用中號刀。叉或勺一般隨刀的大小而變。喝湯時，要用大號勺，而喝咖啡和吃冰激凌時，則用小號為宜。

　　6.忌諱用自己的餐具為他人來布菜。

　　7.不能用叉子扎著食物進口，而應把食物鏟起入口。當然現在這個規則已經變得不是那么的嚴格。英國人左手拿叉，叉尖朝下，把肉扎起來，送入口中，如果是燒爛的蔬菜，就用餐刀把菜撥到餐叉上，送入口中，美國人用同樣的方法切肉，然后右手放下餐刀，換用餐叉，叉尖朝上，插到肉的下面，不用餐刀，把肉鏟起來，送入口中，吃燒爛的蔬菜也是這樣鏟起來吃。

　　8.如食用某道菜不需要用刀，也可用右手握叉，例如意大利人在吃面條時，只使用一把叉，不需要其他餐具，那么用右手來握叉倒是簡易方便的。沒有大塊的肉要切的話，例如素食盤，只是不用切的蔬菜和副食，那么，按理也可用右手握叉來進餐。

　　9.為了安全起見，手里拿著刀叉時切勿指手畫腳。發言或交談時，應將刀叉放在盤上才合乎禮儀。這也是對旁邊的人的一種尊重。

　　10.叉子和勺子可入口，但刀子不能放入口中，不管它上面是否有食物。除了禮節上的要求，刀子入口也是危險的。

　　西餐餐具的使用法則

　　中餐的餐具只有一雙筷子，而西餐餐具卻是琳瑯滿目的一整排。請放輕松，餐具擺放雖然多，但其實只是為四道菜而準備。這四道菜是前菜、湯、魚、肉，餐廳只是將餐具一次全擺出來了而已。

　　喝湯的禮儀Soup

　　(1).西餐的湯分為清湯及濃湯，較正式的餐廳在供應清湯時使用橢圓形湯匙及湯杯，供應濃湯時使用圓形湯匙及寬口湯盤。

　　(2).拿湯匙的姿勢是由內經外側舀食。

　　(3).西餐喝湯時，不能發出聲音。用湯時，不可用嘴將湯吹涼。可輕輕搖動湯使其稍涼。

　　(4).食用完畢后把湯匙放在靠自己身前的底盤上，或是放在盤中。將湯匙的柄放在右邊，而湯匙凹陷的部份向上;湯杯與湯盤都是如此。

　　食用面包的.禮儀Bread

　　(1).面包的位置于主菜的左側。食用時可用左手拿面包，再用右手把面包撕成小塊，然后用左手拿著小面包，用右手涂抹奶油。把面包撕成小塊后再涂奶。
