             Etiquette is defined as the form, manners, and ceremonies established by convention as acceptable or required in social relations, in a profession, or in life. Etiquette is good manners, respect, and good behavior. It is not just one of these things, but it is all of these rolled into one. Today in the business world, a great amount of business is conducted at a dinner table. It is very important to have a complete understanding of how to conduct yourself when entertaining or being entertained. Listed below are a few guidelines to follow to help relieve the dining anxiety.
            
             • When inviting a client to out to eat, select a restaurant where the food is of good quality and the service is reliable.
            
             • When escorted to a table by the host, allow the guest to walk behind the person. When finding a table on your own, take the lead. (http://business.missouri.edu/S-support/career/resources/dress_etiquette.htm).
            
             • When the server asks for your meal order before the clients, say "I would like my guests to order first". This is the appropriate thing to do and it lets the server know that you are going to pay for check.
            
             • Always by sure everyone at the table has been served before you begin your meal.
            
             • Never rest your arms or elbows on the table. .

             • Avoid ordering food that will be difficult or sloppy to eat. But if you do order a difficult food to eat, cut it into small pieces before eating.
            
             • When you do not know what utensil to use, always work from the outside to the inside, or look at what your guests are using. (www.career.fsu.edu/ccis/guides/etiquette.html).
            
             • Finally, tip the server adequately. A good tip is 15-20% of the check amount. Treat the server as one of your employees.
             These are only a few of the many guidelines to follow when eating out with guests or clients.
