Along with the dishes, the ambassador Mr. Elard Escala explained to us the “Inca cola”, a typical soda beverage in Peru. During the dinner, Madame Cristina Escala gave us guidance on the table manners when eating course menus, served at special occasions.

The ambassadors wife showed us how to eat and how to whipe your mouth. First we by using the fork and knife. We use the fork upside down. We put the food on the upside down fork with the knife and bring it to our mouths. After eating we whipe our mouths with napkins. We had our napkins on our laps. We took the napkin and whiped our mouth by the edge of it.
