- Knowing how to use a napkin correctly shows respect and consideration towards your fellow diners.
- The way you handle your napkin can reflect on your overall table manners and etiquette.
- As soon as you sit down, place the napkin on your lap with the fold facing towards you.
- Use only the inner side to gently tap your mouth when needed.
- Avoid using your napkin as a bib or tucking it into your shirt, as this is considered impolite.
- When leaving the table temporarily, it's important to place your napkin on your chair rather than on the table.
- Leave it roughly folded to the left of your plate when finished.
