Vietnamese people always place all dishes at the center of the table so that everyone can access them, so do not rush on your food! The host will invite you to your seat since there are positions allocated for each person based on the difference in age. The oldest person is the one who sits first.
2. Wait for the oldest people to start first
Local people have several Vietnam table manners and eating ettiquete to express respect to the senior. In Vietnam, many generations live under one roof, thus it is essential to show your respect, caring, and politeness to the elderly. According to a Vietnamese proverb, “Ăn trông nồi ngồi trông hướng” (We must look at the bottom of the pan before eating), consider your small actions and let the oldest person become the first
3. Pass your bowl with both hands
During the meal, make sure that you pass the bowl to the others using both hands. When you want a second or third serving, ask the host sincerely, pass your bowl to him or her, and remember to say ‘Thank you’ (or ‘Cảm ơn’ in Vietnamese).
4. Do not stick the chopstick against the bowl
Chopsticks are used to transfer meat and vegetables from shared dishes to your bowls and we usually put them on the top of the bowl. Positioning chopsticks vertically on a bowl of rice is considered an act of disrespect in Vietnam since it looks like incense sticks on an altar. Also, never tap the chopsticks on the edge of the bowl. This means bringing bad luck and poverty to the family.
If you do not know how to use chopsticks, sincerely ask the host for spoons and forks.
5. Do not flip the fish on the plate
If you are visiting a coastal area of Vietnam, take this rule seriously. Flipping the fish dish is considered an unlucky signal, resembling the image of fishermen’ flipping vessel. Taking the fish bone out is a better option.
6. Do not point the chopsticks to anyone
It is really rude when you point your chopsticks to others at the dining table. Do not make this mistake unless you want to upset the host.
7. Do not dig into the dish
In Vietnam, it is rude to dig into the dish to seek for good parts, for example, chicken thighs and wings, when picking food from shared dishes. This act is considered selfish and not thinking about others, which is bad in a collectivist culture like Vietnam. When you are a guest, the host will definitely offer you good things on the dish, so no need to dig for them.
8. Do not eat directly from shared dishes
This is one of the most important Vietnam table manners. Remember to pick out the food from shared dishes to your bowl first, and then eat it. Do not put the food directly into your mouths.
9. Stay until other people finish
It is not polite to leave the table too soon since other people may think that you do not want to talk to them. Therefore, show your respect by staying and talking to others when you finish your meal; as well as helping the host to prepare dessert. It is an opportunity for you to learn more about Vietnamese culture.
10. Say Thanks to the host after the meal
Make sure to tell the host that you are satisfied with the meal, at the same time, praise their dedication and skillfulness. This action conveys your appreciation with the efforts of the host. The host will be grateful if you offer to help with the cleaning, although they won’t let you do it.]]> 2021-11-18 13:45:06 UTC https://padlet.com/lqhtrang101/gndckxmnbf02sd6u/wish/1899533995 Tú https://padlet.com/lqhtrang101/gndckxmnbf02sd6u/wish/1900326704 1.
