英国餐饮礼仪

做客餐桌礼节：如果你被邀请到别人家做客，就要考虑这样几个情况。比如，该在什么时候到主人家？这没什么规定，但在主人家坐得太晚是很不礼貌的。如果只是邀请你共进晚餐和聊天，那么你最好在10点至11点之间离开或者餐后1小时告别。

宴请方式：英国的宴请方式多种多样，主要有茶会和宴会，茶会包括正式和非正式茶会。英国人在席间不布菜也不劝酒，全凭客人的兴趣取用。客人之间告别可相互握手，也可点头示意，一般要将取用的菜吃光才礼貌，不喝酒的人在侍者斟酒时，将手往杯口一放就行。

烹饪方式：英国人一般较喜爱的烹饪方式有：烩、烧烤、煎和油炸。对肉类、海鲜、野味的烹调均有独到的方式，在食用时不仅附上时令的蔬菜、烤洋芋，还会在牛排上加上少许的芥茉酱；在香料上则喜好肉寇、肉桂等新鲜香料；在佐料的使用上则喜好奶油及酒类。
