If it is a round table, is facing the door of the host guest, the host guest left and right hand side of the position, the distance from the host guest, the closer to the host guest position the more honored, the same distance from the left side of the right side of the honored.

Generally, if your boss is attending, you should usher him to the main seat and ask the highest-ranking client to take the seat to the left of the main seat. Unless the person you are entertaining this time has a very high level of leadership.
2 - Ordering
If time permits, you should wait until most of the guests have arrived, then circulate the menu to them and ask them to order. Of course, as an official banquet, you will be worried about the budget, therefore, to control the budget, the most important thing for you is to do more homework before the meal, and it is more important to choose the right grade of inviting place, so that the guests can also greatly appreciate your budget. Moreover, generally speaking, if you are to pay the bill, guests are not too good to order, will let you make the decision. If your boss is also in the banquet, do not because of respect for him, or that he is experienced in socializing, banquet eat a lot, and let him / her to order, unless he / she took the initiative to ask. Otherwise, he will not feel decent enough.
If you're the one who's going to the banquet, you should know that you shouldn't take too much initiative in ordering the food, but let the host do the ordering. If the other party is kind enough to ask, you can order a dish that is not too expensive and not taboo for everyone. Remember to ask for the opinions of the people at the table, especially "Is there anything you don't eat?" or "What do you like better? or "What are your favorites?" Make everyone feel taken care of. After ordering, you can ask, "I don't know if the food I ordered is to your liking," or "Would you like something else?
When ordering, be sure to have a good idea of what you're ordering. When ordering, according to the following three rules
A look at the composition of the staff. Generally speaking, per capita a dish is a more general rule. If it is more men's meal will be appropriate to increase the amount.
Two look at the combination of dishes. Generally speaking, a table dish is best meat and vegetarian, cold and hot, try to be comprehensive. If more men on the table, you can point some meat, if more women, you can point a few light vegetables.
Three look at the importance of the feast. If it is an ordinary business banquet, the average dish is acceptable at about 50 yuan to 80 yuan. If the object of this banquet is more key people, then it is necessary to point on a few enough portion of the dishes, such as lobster, swordfish, anchovies, and then to the specifications of a little more, is abalone, shark's fin powder and so on.
There is also a point to note is that when ordering food should not ask the waiter the price of dishes, or haggling, which will make your company in front of the customer looks a little small, and the customer will also feel uncomfortable.
Attachment: Chinese food ordering guide - three excellent four taboo
A standard Chinese meal, usually, the first cold dishes, followed by hot fried, followed by the main course, and then on the snacks and soups, if you feel a little tired of eating, you can point to some desserts after the meal, and finally on the fruit plate. Take into account the dishes of each program in your order.
Priority dishes
I. Dishes with Chinese characteristics. When entertaining foreign guests, this one should be given more importance. Like fried spring rolls, boiled dumplings, steamed dumplings, lion's head, Gongbao chicken, etc., are not delicacies and delicious, but because of the distinctive Chinese characteristics, they are respected by many foreigners.
Two, there are local specialties. For example, Xi'an's lamb steamed buns, Hunan's Mao's braised pork, Shanghai's braised lion's head, Beijing's shabu-shabu, I'm afraid these specialties will be more appreciated than the same old raw seafood when entertaining foreign guests there.
Third, the restaurant's specialties. Many restaurants have their own specialties. Serving a specialty of the restaurant shows the host's care and respect for the person being invited.
When arranging the menu, the dietary taboos of the guests must also be taken into consideration, especially the dietary taboos of the guest of honor should be given high priority. These dietary taboos are mainly four
1. Religious dietary taboos should not be neglected at all. For example, Muslims usually do not eat pork and do not drink alcohol. Domestic Buddhists eat less non-vegetarian food, it refers not only to meat, but also includes onions, garlic, leeks, mustard and other pungent smell of food. Some Buddhists who believe in Goddess of Mercy are especially forbidden to eat beef in their diet, which should be especially noted when entertaining Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and overseas Chinese compatriots.
2. For health reasons, for certain foods, there are some contraindications. For example, heart disease, cerebrovascular, vascular sclerosis, hypertension and post-stroke, not suitable for eating dog meat, hepatitis patients avoid eating lamb and turtle, gastroenteritis, gastric ulcer soup and other digestive disorders are also not suitable for eating turtle, high blood pressure, high cholesterol patients, to drink less chicken soup and so on.
3. Different regions, people's dietary preferences are often different. For this, in arranging the menu to take into account. For example, people in Hunan Province generally prefer spicy food and less sweets. People in British and American countries usually do not eat pets, rare animals, animal offal, animal heads and claws. In addition, when entertaining foreign guests, as little as possible to point to the raw need to gnaw dishes, foreigners in the meal will be less likely to bite the food in the mouth and then spit it out, which also needs to be taken into account.
4. Some professions, for some reason, in the dining often have their own different special taboos. For example, national civil servants are not allowed to eat in the performance of official duties, not allowed to eat and drink in the official banquet, not allowed to exceed the national standard dining, not allowed to drink hard liquor. Another example is that drivers are not allowed to drink during their work. If this point is ignored, there is a possibility that the other party to make a mistake.
3--Eat your food
Chinese people are generally very concerned about eating, but also about the way they eat. As workplace etiquette is becoming more and more emphasized, eating and eating looks at the business dinner table are also more elaborate. The following is an example of Chinese food, teaching you how to be polite and courteous at the table.
Chinese banquet into the beginning of the meal, the waiter sent the first wet towel is to wipe the hands, do not use it to wipe the face. On the lobster, chicken, fruit, will send a small water Meng, which floats twisted lemon slices or rose petals, it is not a drink, but to wash hands with. To wash your hands, take turns wetting your fingers with both hands, gently swishing them, and then drying them with a small towel.
When dining, pay attention to civilized manners. Don't try to persuade a foreign guest to eat, but introduce him to the characteristics of Chinese food and let him know whether to eat or not. Some people like to persuade others to eat, and even for each other to eat. Foreign guests do not have this habit, if you are polite again and again, it is possible that people will be disgusted: "said not to eat, you have to force me to do what?" By analogy, when attending a banquet held by a foreign guest, do not expect the host to repeatedly give you food. If you wait for someone to give you a dish, you'll just have to Russian your stomach.
After the guests are seated, they should not eat immediately. Instead, they should wait for the host to greet them and raise their cups to signal the start of the meal before the guests can begin; the guests should not rush in front of the host. The dishes should be civilized, should wait for the dishes to their own front, then move chopsticks, do not rush in front of the neighboring seats, a clip should not be too much food. To chew and swallow slowly, which is not only conducive to digestion, but also the requirements of table manners. Never stuff large pieces into your mouth and wolf down your food, as this will leave an impression of greed. Don't be picky about what you eat, don't just fixate on your favorite lei to eat, or rush to pile your favorite dishes on your plate. Eat elegantly, don't touch your neighbor when you are eating, don't put the dish on the table, and don't splash the soup over. Don't make unnecessary noises, such as "gurgling" when drinking soup or "blaring" when eating vegetables, which are all signs of vulgarity. Don't eat while chatting with others. Don't spit out bones or fish splinters from your mouth on the table; cover your mouth with a napkin and use chopsticks to remove them and put them on a plate. Don't eat dishes that have been dropped on the table. Don't play with the chopsticks or use the chopsticks to point them straight at others during the meal. Don't pick at your mouth with your hands. Cover your mouth with your hand or a napkin when picking your teeth with a toothpick. Don't let the dishes make any noise.
After the meal is over, you can wipe your mouth with a napkin, napkin or a small towel from the waiter, but not your head, neck or chest; do not burp or belch uncontrollably after the meal; and the guest should not leave the table before the host signals the end of the meal.
On toasts
1. The host honors the guest of honor.
2. The accompanying guest toasts the guest of honor.
3. The guest of honor returns the toast.
4. The guests honor each other.
Remember: a guest must not be noisy toasting, that is very rude, but also very disrespectful to the host.
4--pouring tea
The tea here applies to both customers to visit the company, also applies to the business table.
First of all, the tea set should be clean. Guests into the house, the first to sit, after the preparation of tea. Before the tea, be sure to wash the tea set, especially the long unused tea set, inevitably stained with dust, dirt, more carefully with water to wash and brush again. In the tea, pouring tea before the best use of boiling water to scald the teapot, tea cups. In this way, both hygienic and courteous. If no matter whether the tea is clean or not clean, haphazardly pouring tea to the guests, this is not a polite performance. People see the teapot, teacups on the stains on the stomach, how are still willing to drink your tea? Now the general company are disposable cups, before pouring tea, pay attention to the disposable cups set on the cup holder, so as not to hot water scalding, so that the guests can not end of the cup to drink tea.
Secondly, the tea should be appropriate. First of all, the tea, generally appropriate. Tea should not be too much, nor too little. Too much tea, tea flavor is too strong; tea is too little, brewed tea has no flavor. If the guests take the initiative to introduce themselves to like to drink strong tea or light tea habits, then in accordance with the guest's appetite to tea. Pouring tea, both large and small cups, should not be poured too full, too full is easy to overflow, the table, stools, floor wet. Careless, but also scalding their own hands and feet or guests, so that the guests and hosts are very embarrassed. Of course, should not pour too little. If the tea only cover the bottom of the cup to the guests, it will make people feel that it is in a show, not sincere.
Once again, the end of the tea to be appropriate. According to the traditional habits of our people, as long as the two hands are not disabled, are using both hands to the guests of the tea. However, now some young people do not know the rules, with one hand to the guests of the tea. Tea with both hands should also pay attention to the ear of the cup, usually with one hand to grasp the ear of the cup, the other hand to hold the bottom of the cup, the tea to the guests. There is no cup ear of the tea cup after pouring full of tea around the hot, hands are not good close, some comrades regardless of three or seven, with five fingers pinch the edge of the cup in front of the guests to send. This tea method can prevent scalding accidents, but it is very unsightly, and not hygienic enough. Please imagine, let the guest's mouth lick the host's finger marks, good to feel?
Add tea. If your bosses and clients need tea in their cups, it is incumbent upon you to do so. You can signal the waiter to add tea, or ask the waiter to leave the teapot on the table, by yourself to add the better, this is the best way to cover up when you do not know what to say. Of course, when you add tea, you should add tea to your boss and customers first, and then add it to yourself at the end.
5--Leaving the table
General cocktail and tea party time is very long, about have in two hours or more. Maybe after a few rounds and recognizing some people, you'll soon want to leave. At this point, you can't afford not to know some of the tricks of the trade.
Commonly, when a party is in full swing, someone wants to leave, causing the crowd to disperse in a flurry of results, which makes the organizer really jumping out of his skin. In order to avoid this kind of scenery, when you want to leave in the middle of the time, don't say goodbye to everyone in the circle of conversation, as long as quietly and around two or three people to say hello, and then leave can be.
Leaving the reception in the middle of the scene, be sure to explain to the host who invited you to come, apologize, not a smoke will be gone.
When you say hello to your host, you should leave right away, and don't drag him or her to the front door for a long chat. Because the other side of the day to do a lot of things, there are many guests waiting for him (her) to greet, you take up too much of the host's time, will cause him (her) in front of other guests rude.
Some people attend cocktail parties and tea parties, and when they are ready to leave in the middle of the day, they will ask everyone they know if they want to go together. As a result, the scene was originally lively and bustling, by her so encouraged, all of a sudden, early dispersal. This kind of trouble things, the most difficult to be banquet host understanding, a person with manners, can never make this clock error.
