During my visit to Britain, I was taken to a restaurant by a British family. I put my knife and fork down while I was telling them a story. A waiter came and took my plate away! I found out later that putting your knife and fork down in the middle of the plate means “I’ve finished”.

I visited my company’s French office, and I was taken out for dinner. Soon after we sat down, a waiter came with some small dishes of food. I offered them to everyone at the table. Then one of the French people said to me, “Do you realise that’s my food you’re offering everyone? ”

I was asked to dinner by some Chinese people I did business with. I was given some delicious food to start with, and after that, a bowl of water was put in front of me, with lemon in it. I picked up the spoon and began to drink it. I felt so stupid when I saw everyone trying not to laugh. It wasn’t soup! I was drinking the water in my finger bowl!
