Incredible job Driaan!! Loved it.
Thanks Iz!!!
Interesting! I love learning about table manners in different cultures.
Same! Such an interesting topic
Love your videos Driaan!!!
So beautifully done!
This is cool! Great job, team!
Thanks a lot! 😊
3:20 Slight correction: you can use your own chopsticks to pick up food that are easily separable and you do not intend to share a single piece (e.g. a fried chicken wing, a bun) but you must make sure you don't touch another piece, so the chopsticks skills come to play. You can use the back of your chopsticks to pick them up but I'd say it's overly polite, it adds unnecessary pressure on others to follow suit. However, you must use the back of the chopsticks if you're picking up such food for someone else, especially elderly who find it hard to reach for certain plates.
Congratulations Driaan! That was FASCINATING!
Thanks Gabriela 😁
It really was!!
Driaan this is so helpful! Now I have to visit China and Cape Town. That view!!!
DO ITTTT
YES come!!!
Another very important etiquette worth mentioning is to never ever put elbows on the table, only the forearms at most. I think this is probably common in other cultures as well.
Awesome work Driaan, that was so interesting! Jealous of your view lol
We're so glad you enjoyed it! 🙌
Thanks Lashan!
Thanks! You have covered quite a few points I haven't found elsewhere. Really helpful! 謝謝你 😊😊 PS: some of your English accent was really good! I daren't even attempt Australian! 🤐🤐
Well done Driaan!
Thenks Dre :)
A bowl of rice is only mandatory in Southern China. Many provinces in the north (and especially North West) don’t even have rice as an option at local restaurants.
so cool!
Right?!
"SE Asia" like China, HK, and Taiwan? My understanding of SE Asia is Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Philippines...
I LIKE THIS GUY!!!
WE LIKE HIM TOO!!!
Didn’t know any of these as a Taiwanese. Thanks
Seating, serving and taking care of the bill etiquette are incredibly similar to the Italian one. So much different in countries like Germany or USA.
That's so interesting 😍
@Julian Cisneros 👋
I slurp as a Taiwanese. It means delicious. It came from Japan
My mom was at a huge business dinner many years ago and told me the Chinese clients where slurping, burping and generally being very noisy, which they explained as being a sign of appreciation for the food and compliments to the chef. I believed this for many years, but after seeing this video, i realized they were just really fucking rude
Dutch table manners would be a very short video :D
😅😅😅
Indian table manners 😁
On the list ✍
Damn. That’s a small bowl of rice. Lol. Nice soup spoon btw.
😂😂
I mean, you don't only eat rice in one meal. And there's a lot of things you can make or buy later if you get hungry. Not all people eat too much in a single meal.
Do India please.
What a great idea! ✍
Why I am watching this while eating hotpot?
Yuuuuuum
5:07 As a Chinese, we don't really care
Good to know 🙌
As a Chinese, I do really care。
I thought tapping is I had enough lol
Oh no! You must be dehydrated! 😊
Do you have special chopsticks being left handed. Lol
A lot of this seems remarkably similar to Southern American eating culture, save the chopsticks haha.
Broccoli in Chinese cuisine? Hmmm...
There is nothing worse than embarrassing yourself at a dinner party... even stepping on a landmine. How about embarrassing yourself at a dinner party by accidentally stepping on a landmine and getting shrapnel, blood and bone fragments all over the food?
Fighting over bill is embarassing
Who are the china-chinese learning from.? What are their benchmarks.?
I do half-a-point wrong in practically all-area.sss but i am not from china. not to be copied. Most people cannot pull-it-off. Self, is the crux of the matter. Not-genuine is funny. Get real. Be real. Be realistic.
I don't give a hoot cause I will never visit that awful country.
Surely #1 is not to eat Bats...
Nobody gives a shit about bats in China
@@burggerbig102 That's literally not true, though. Several viral outbreaks have happened in China because of people eating bats.
@@jonahs92 Stupid and clumsy disinformation.
