Woo!
Unlike other friends from other courses, who are not taking this subject, I am better able to project myself in such a way that I stand out. For example, in Top Table, my friends may not know that by closing the menu and placing it on the table is a signal for order taking.
They would also not know how to eat a piece of bread. Although this may sound simple, but to show etiquette in eating a piece of bread, I have to put in effort to break a small piece, spread the butter and jam, before placing the bread gracefully into my mouth.
& Most importantly, I know which utensil if for which course of food, and the correct position of holding, and placing of utensils.
Through this course, I have also understood the importance of presenting myself in a professional manner.
Currently, I know that the first impression is often drawn from the way I’m dressed, as well as me grooming, postures, and the way I present myself. Thus, I would not be anxious when I’m in a business setting, or going for an interview.
