About this title

Synopsis

With the revival in good manners, etiquette, spelling, and grammar, this is a timely guide to table manners and dining etiquette to ensure grace at the table at all times. All aspects of eating etiquette are covered—from napkin folding, cutlery, glasses, bread rolls (never use a knife!), and silver service to how to eat soup, spaghetti, escargot, artichokes, and how to open a bottle of champagne. With diagrams for tricky table placements and eating actions and a range of tips and hints, this book is the last word on how to eat.
