Re: Basic etiquettes of dining at someone's place

Agar dining table itni bari ho aur salan door rakha , aik zaif buddhay babay k pass toh banda kia karay ? khana no khay kia ?

What difference it makes if you put qorma on biryani or on the side , I will be mixing them both to eat anyways and it will get mixed in my tidd ultimately. :confused:

Very tasty chicken delicacy from Hyderabad , India. Try it sometime. There are many versions and variation of the recipe on the internet and I got the recipes from the internet. It is always the most popular dish at the parties we throw or participate in.
One version of it I ate first time at a Hyderabidi restaurant in Chicago. The other version at a restaurant in Atlanta.

Re: Basic etiquettes of dining at someone's place

Hosts: if you own pets, please be sure to put them in a closed room, door firmly shut and leave a dish of water for it. Not everyone likes dogs and/or cats and some are very fearful of them whether they tell you or not. I actually went to a big gathering once and the host couple let their 2 german shepherds roam the party because they wanted to see how the dogs behaved around little kids (mine).

Guests: if you're invited for dinner then by all means come for dinner. This lasts a few hours...not a week.

55

That is what she was trying to do , confuse you.

Re: Basic etiquettes of dining at someone's place

LOL well than her work should be done!!!

To that, I'd add that guests should stay away from the animal when the host has made clear that the pet is wary of strangers. That means that I don't care how "good" you are with animals or how much your child wants to pet the kitty. My cat is afraid. He's hiding. Leave him alone. And yes, that does mean you can't open the door to the room I've left him in with his food and litter. If you continue chasing after him, I'll not be held responsible when he breaks out the claws.

In fact, if there's a closed door for any reason, it means that it's CLOSED. Please explain to your child (and to yourself if you missed the lesson on respecting someone's privacy) that you can't go into someone's house and start exploring wherever you please.

Re: Basic etiquettes of dining at someone's place

VERY VERY VERY IMP!!!

Dont bug ur host!! its ok to be polite and say let me do dishes or put them in dish washetr..... but if the hosts says no thankyou!.... PLZ!! bakoff!!! and dont bud in!!! u dont know how the host function everything in her home... u can be increasing work for her! so let her do her thing!!!

I just remembered this when yesterday one of our guest just came in the kitchen... pull me a side from the sink... where i was pilling the dirty plates and started washing them. and she insisted.... too much... so i gave up on her... do did my mom! after a while i figured out that she is just rinsing the plates and spoon with water and placing them in basket where my mom place clean bartan!! so end result.... we still had to wash them . and the whole basket with it!! double waste of water, time!!! totally useless!!!

once before we had guests over and in the morning after breakfast she wanted to do something so she randomly put everything in the dishwasher.... including raaw egg bartan in the dishwasher!! .... and turned it on!! end result... all the bartan smelling like raw egg... and so did the dishwasher!!! :| .. total waste of everything!!!
