Posh restaurant
I was eight the first time my father took me out to a proper 'posh' Chinese restaurant. It was to be my first ever experience of both chinese food and a proper Restaurant! He told me that I had to be on my best behavior and that it was very, very important that I had to follow proper eating etiquette, meaning I had to eat each type of food with it's own designated eating implement.

He then proceeeded to order me a special chop suey with half rice / half chips. In no time at all he had me eating the rice with one of the soup spoons, one fork was for the meat, the other for vegtables. The knife in the inside was used to cut the meat only and the other knife to cut up anything else. Excetera, excetera...

He also procceded to tell me off whenever I used the wrong combinations of all of the above. He wasn't happy untill I had used all of the provided three rows of cuttlery for my main course and had food strewn over most of the table. My antics had also provided a good few laughs to both the surrounding tables and the restaurant staff.

Git.
