Table manners are different all over the world. If you are a guest(客人) in India, this information will help you a lot.
In India, dinner is usually from four in the afternoon to six in the evening. But there are not strict rules about time. Whenever a guest arrives, a family offers food. When you go to a home, the person who receives guests takes you to the living room first. At this time everyone welcomes you. Then you go to the dinning room. There you wash your hands in a bowl of water. All the food is on the table.
In India you usually eat with your fingers. You eat from the same dish as everyone else. But you eat from one side of the dish only. It is not polite to get food from the other side of the dish. After dinner, you wash your hands again in a bowl of water.
Most meals in India have a dish called fufu. People in India make fufu from the powder(粉末)of some plants. Sometimes they cut the fufu with a saw(锯子)because it’s very hard. You must chew(咀嚼)fufu well, or you may get sick. You eat fufu with the fingers of your right hand only.
