Soup

Seasoning Your Soup00:00:05

Always taste your soup first before adding salt and pepper. You might find it doesn't need any additional seasoning.

Holding the Spoon00:00:18

Hold the spoon like a pencil, bringing it slightly towards the middle for better control.

Eating the Soup00:00:35

Tip the spoon away from you when bringing it to your mouth. To prevent dripping, don't overfill the spoon and touch it to the side of the bowl before lifting.

Maintaining Good Posture00:00:58

Pull your chair close to the table, sit up straight, and lean in slightly. Always bring your food to your mouth, not your head to the food.

Tipping the Bowl00:01:23

You can tip the bowl to gather the last bits of soup, but always tip it away from you, similar to how you dip the spoon.

Spoon Placement When Finished00:01:34

If you are briefly pausing, leave the spoon in the bowl. When finished, place the spoon on the right-hand side of the service plate. If there's no service plate, it goes back in the bowl to protect the linen.
