how to use chopsticks
|

1) Rest the end of the lower chopstick in the V of your thumb and forefinger. Support the chopstick with the little finger and the ring finger.
2) Hold the upper chopstick as if it were a pencil, held between your middle finger and index finger, and anchored with your thumb.
3) Make sure the tips of the chopsticks are always even, and the same length - it is impossible to use the chopsticks effectively if the tip of one stick protrudes beyond the other.
4) When picking up food, the lower chopstick should remain still - only the upper chopstick should pivot, with the thumb as axis.
Eating etiquette
* Use provided chopstick rest to hold your chopsticks when not eating.
* Moisten your chopsticks before starting to eat - this makes food handling easier.
* Never stand your chopsticks down into a bowl of rice, like a dagger.
* Don't wave your chopsticks about when talking.
