How you handle yourself at the table, under pressure with a mouthful of food, can either positively or negatively influence your impression on others. Therefore, be aware that a successful social gathering requires advanced skills and thoughtful planning.
Here are a few handy tips to remember when you're approaching an important social event involving a meal:-
1.Relax and be yourself. Make sure you won’t be very hungry when you get there so you can focus more on the conversation than on wolfing down food or on obsessing about whether your etiquette is beyond reproach.
2.Never take calls during your meeting/meal. If it's very important, take excuse and leave the table before picking the call.
3.Don’t order an alcoholic drink during an interview, even if the interviewer orders one and seems to honestly give you permission to. Most managers may just be testing your judgment quite strictly here.
4.Mind your posture - focus on body language as it’s extremely important.
5.Liquids belong on the right, solids on the left.
