Even the most traveled and exposed of people, will always be perplexed by the pool of spoons, knives and forks put before them at a high-end hotel or restaurant for a meal. We ought to strive to educate and refresh ourselves regarding some of the seemingly simple principles that amount to etiquette norms, lest they face very embarrassing scenes.
Monday, February 18, 2019, was a fun filled fellowship. President Ian and Rotarian Brenda presided over fellowship with the Rotary norms. Mr. Aloni Kireta our guest speaker was ushered to the podium to present. During his presentation, he could not help but do justice the “table manners norms” with so much passion reflected in his body language. He got the audience flabbergasted that they could not help it but understand why it was important to always have etiquette at the table. “What a magnificent fellowship it was?” For more details please click this link.

Mr. Aloni Kireta’s presentation was largely illustrative that the audience was captivated by it. Particular highlights on table manner were largely focused on “how a waiters/waitresses and customer conducted themselves while using all types of cutlery at dinner”. A variety of amazing questions were asked, ranging from different cultures like Chinese and the use of chopsticks to Africans and the use of hands to eat. He too gave eloquent answers to the questions asked. In a nutshell, the ambiance filled with guests had a sense of satisfaction after Aloni’s presentation. For more details please click this link.
