Dining Practices Around the World

Wed, Apr 8 2015 - 6:00pm
Syndi Seid, Founder, Advanced Etiquette

Have you ever been afraid of committing an unintentional cultural faux pas at a business dinner? Or perhaps you’re just curious about how different cultures around the world approach eating? Back by popular demand is our resident etiquette expert, Syndi Seid, to lead us through a lively discussion on how people dine in different countries. She’ll touch on the similarities and differences of eating with your hands, chopsticks and flatware, so for added fun, bring your own pair of chopsticks and a spoon, knife and fork to practice how to properly use these items. We’ll also be discussing how to eat appropriately with your hands so as not to be perceived as a barbarian! Seid's prior Commonwealth Club appearances sold out, so be sure to make your reservations early.
