Basic Table Manners - di Amrik
Sit up straight. Never leaning backward, nor forward.
Keep your elbows off the table.
Take your napkin and place it in your lap right away when you sit down.
Use your utensils from the outside in. Don't wave utensils in the air.
Don't speak with your mouth full of food.
Chew quietly, and try not to slurp.
Keep bites small.
Eat at a leisurely pace. Eating quickly and running is sign of disrespect for the host.
Don't Reach. Don't get in the way of people either eating or talking.
Don't forget "please" and "thank you".
Excuse yourself when leaving the table.
