Banquet in Nanjing Hotel
Dining Room

A Special Place Setting - 2

One or two places settings will be different than the others. This signifies that place is for the person of honor for that dinner. You need to be careful here. If you are the person of honor and sit elsewhere you will give problems to the person hosting the dinner. However if you sit in the place of honor and aren't that person it can be even worse. Simply ask your host where you are to sit and they will tell you. Because we are long-time friends with the host we were asked to sit there. It had its napkin folded different that all the others. Most fine dining rooms and private dining rooms take great pride in their elaborate table settings.
