@katarina.etiquette: Did you know there is a difference between how the Americans use the cutlery vs. the Europeans?🍴The American dining style is often referred to as the ’’switch and switch’’ style as it requires switching your hands in between bites. In the European style (also known as the Continental style), no switching is required 🙂✨ Which dining style do you prefer? #etiquette #etiqueta #etiquettetips #etiquetterules #tablemanners #manners #elegance #elegantlady #cutlery #cutleryetiquette #americandining #europeandining

pretty sure your fork is always supposed to be in your left hand and your knife in your right... hand dominance has nothing to do with the correct etiquette really

Do Europeans just hold the knife the entire time they’re eating? Why?

second one is so much effort. If I have things that need poking and cutting I have knife in dominant hand and then for scooping I switch

Peter de Vries :
I’m European, but I do swith the knife and fork constantly between my left and right hands. I don’t put down the knife. I use the knife to shove my food on to my fork 😅
