Table Manner & Accommodation Tour

        ―The dinner table is the center for the teaching and practicing not just of table manners but of conversation, consideration, tolerance, family feeling, and just about all the other accomplishments of polite society except the minuet.” -Judith Martin

Table Manner

    Table manners are the rules of etiquette used while eating, which may also include the appropriate use of utensils. Different cultures observe different rules for table manners. People who hasn‘t known and experienced table manner may find it complicated because there are many etiquettes.

Here are some essential dining etiquette rules that you should follow:

Sit straight on your chair. 

Turn off your cell phone before sitting down. 

It is rude to talk on your phone or text while in the company of others. 

Taste your food before you add salt, pepper, or other seasoning. 

Doing otherwise may be insulting to the host or hostess. 

Chew with your mouth closed. 

Never talk when you have food in your mouth, even if someone asks you a question, wait until you swallow before answering. 

Bring your food to your face, not your face to your food. 

Say ―Thank You‖, ―Please‖, and ―Excuse Me‖ if you want to do something or when someone gives you a favor. Don‘t cut all your food before you begin eating. 

Cut one or two bites at a time. Never blow on your food.

If it is hot, wait a few minutes for it to cool off. 

Scoop your soup away from you. 

If you are drinking from a stemmed glass, hold it by the stem. 

Break your bread into bite-sized pieces and butter only one bite at a time. 

Try at least one or two bites of everything on your plate, unless you are allergic to it.

    Table Manner is a rule of ethics in an official international standard dinner, as a hotelier, having insight and knowledge about Table Manner will certainly make us a "hospitality child" who is truly professional. Table Manner is divided into 2 points of view, the first point of view is that if we as guests are invited to a Table Manner-style dinner, of course, there are some attitudes that we need to maintain so that we don't look clumsy, confused by a series of rules and ethics that apply in a banquet. Starting from enjoying the food served to start from the Appetizer (appetizer), Soup (soup), Main Course (main course) to Dessert (dessert), including using cutlery prepared according to the order of food served by the waiters. 

       Then, in the second point of view, if we work as a hotelier who does the setup for a Table Manner event, of course, we have to know, what kind of cutlery is used, how it is managed according to international standards, as well as arranging the seats. with a prepared invitation. Not knowing this, is certainly a very fatal thing.

Accommodation Tour

    Accommodation is a group of rooms, or building which someone may live or stay and is important to any tourists who want to travel to another destination or on a trip as you are always going to need a place to stay such as hotels, caravan parks, camp sites et.

    Accommodation is split into two parts, serviced and non serviced which are different from each other. They are all in the private sector which means that they want to make a profit and grow their businesses.



Serviced accommodation:

    When a service is provided along with an overnight stay, e.g. hotels, guesthouses, youth hostels etc. This type of serviced accommodation is where there is maid services such as room cleaners which change your bed, towels and also serve food and drink to you when it is needed.

Serviced - The Hilton Hotel:

    If we are looking to spend a lot of time out at your destination then you can stay in a hotel such as The Hilton. This hotel is an excellent hotel and would be ideal to stay if you are with family or having a romantic holiday. They do all the same as any other hotel and try to exceed customers expectations to impress them and keep them happy with where they are staying. Hilton hotels are always trying to know what customers need and what they think they could improve on in their , so if you visit you will know that there will always be something that will impress you and you would certainly enjoy your stay there.

Non serviced accommodation:

When tourists cater for themselves. Examples of this is when you stay in cottages, a camping holiday, caravanning etc. and you have to cook, clean and cater for yourselves.

Non serviced - Haven:

Cool caravans, touring and camping, yurts and more - the choice is yours...

Haven holiday campsites are a great way to spend with your family and friends. If we live in Britain they would be very helpful and also be classed as an inbound holiday. These types of campsites are classed as non serviced which means tourists will have to cater for them self, for example clean up after yourselves and cook your own food. This is what makes them cheaper than a serviced accommodation. Haven offer campsites in many different areas such as Golden Sands which is near Skegness on the east of England. They offer everything you need to make your meals and also provide free entertainment and different activities.
