Common cutlery mistakes

[Image: What NOT to do!]


•Don’t hold your fork like a cello or your knife like a dragger.

•Don’t wave your cutlery triumphantly in the air to emphasize a point.

•Don’t put silverware partly on the table & partly on the plate. Once you pick up a piece of cutlery, it should never touch the table again.

•Knives go on the plate, blade facing in and touching the inside of the plate. Only the handle should rest on the rim of the plate.
