@etiquette_with_olga: 🔔 Hand Placement and Cultural Nuances. Have you ever considered where to rest your hands during a meal? In the context of international dining etiquette, the difference is in the details. French norms dictate resting one's hands (but not elbows) visibly on the edge of the table, an old tradition signaling transparency. On the other side of the channel, English and American dining rules suggest that hands should be politely placed in the lap when not engaged in eating, representing a posture of respect and composure. Both styles carry a distinctive charm and are bound by the universal ethos of etiquette: respect for fellow diners. #etiquette #etiquettetips #diningetiquette #etiquette101 #ladylike #classy #classystyle #etiquetteexpert #gentelmen #evolve #levelup #selfimprovement #gracefuldining #tablemanners #finedining #finedininglovers #manners #modernmanners #mannersmatter #etiquetteschool #etiquetteexpert #TableManners #WineEtiquette #FineDiningTips #DiningEtiquette #WineEtiquette #socialgrace
