Left high and right low: when two people sit side by side, the right side is usually the upper seat and the left side is the lower seat. This is because Chinese food is served clockwise, so right-handed people have priority over left-handed people.
The seat in the middle is the most important: three people eat together, and the person sitting in the middle is higher than the person sitting on both sides.
Face-to-face: If someone is sitting facing the main entrance and someone is sitting with his back to the main entrance, according to etiquette, the person facing the main entrance should be the upper seat, and the person facing the main entrance should be the lower seat.
Good view: when dining in some high-end restaurants, there are often beautiful scenery or elegant performances indoors and outdoors for diners to watch. Perfect angle should be the seat at this time.
It's better to be near the wall: In order to prevent the interference of waiters and diners, some middle and low-end restaurants usually have seats near the wall.
When the banquet hall has a dedicated rostrum, the dining table near the rostrum should be the main table. If there is no dedicated platform, sometimes the dining table on the back adjacent to the main frame is the main table.
Table direction is the same: if it is a banquet place, the main and guest positions on each table should be in the same direction as the main table.
Give priority to distance: when the table is placed vertically, the distance from the main entrance of the banquet hall shall prevail, and the farther away from the door, the higher the ranking.
During the wine tour, I respect the first order. If it is a round table, the host and guest facing the gate are 2, 4, 6 on the left hand side and 3, 5, 7 on the right hand side until they meet.
If it is a square table, if there is a seat facing the gate, the seat on the right side of the gate is the host and guest. If it is not facing the gate, the right seat on the east side is the chief. Then the Sheikh sat on his left, 2, 4, 6 and 8, and on his right, 3, 5 and 7.
If it is a big banquet, the arrangement between tables should pay attention to the chief, with 2, 4 and 6 seats on the left and 3, 5 and 7 seats on the right. According to the identity and status of the host and guests, relatives and friends should sit separately.
