How should the dining table be arranged to reflect the host's unique taste?

Although the dining table is only a small space,
But it is the warmest memory of the family.
How do you spend your three meals a day in your ordinary and trivial days?
For many people, delicious food is a kind of enjoyment, but people often ignore the dining environment, atmosphere, and rituals. Especially when people feel that life is boring and tiring, they often spend three meals a day in a simple way.
We gather with family and friends at the dining table, why do we let this precious time pass in boredom? We spend time preparing meals, why do we take the time to pay attention to the eating process?

The etiquette of the dining process is a reflection of human civilization, an expression of personal accomplishment, and an expression of our attitude of cherishing life and respecting ourselves and others.
From deciding the menu to selecting ingredients, and finally serving the dishes, the whole process is carefully planned, and the anticipation for the meal is poured in. And the people who attend the dinner can also feel the full sincerity. In this way, the "ritual sense" of elegant life is not lost.
The dining table is like a small corner of life, reflecting the owner's unique aesthetic taste, elegant taste and positive attitude towards life. In these "rituals of life", your experience and perception can help you find new meaning in life.
Whether it is a gathering of friends and family or a daily family meal, table setting is definitely one of the creators of "ritual sense". It creates a special atmosphere for dining, highlights the theme, highlights the highlights of the dishes, and increases the fun of dining. How to set a table full of ritual sense, why not try the following tips.

Basic table setting etiquette
Although Chinese food seems to be the most ordinary, there are some particular etiquettes when dining. Chinese tableware mainly includes cups, plates, bowls, dishes, chopsticks and spoons. The common basic tableware arrangement diagram is as follows:

The serving chopsticks and spoon should be placed in front of the host. The napkin should be folded into a square and placed flat on the plate or folded into a flower shape and inserted into a water cup. Soy sauce, vinegar, ashtrays and toothpicks should also be placed on the table as appropriate.
When placing Western tableware, the basic etiquette is: place the plate in the middle, spoon horizontally in front of the plate, fork on the left and knife on the right, first outside and then inside, knife tip upward, blade facing the plate, staple food on the left, drinkware on the right, some special tableware, ashtrays and seasoning bottles, etc. can be placed as needed.

Flowers are the finishing touch in table settings. In addition to flowers, fruits, potted plants, and vines, natural green plants can create a harmonious and comfortable atmosphere.

Make sure the color of the flowers matches the dining table, such as the tablecloth or the tableware.
