Wow
Ma momma sent me this video to watch. I kinda feel insulted but whatever
Jamila, when cutting your food it should be one smooth cut at a time and not a back and forth sawing action. Almost everything looked great. Thank you for sharing.
Fatherless British women
I love the CROSS necklace and Bracelet you are a true Christian!!! way to go Sister!
Thank you.
I went on my first date with this guy I really like..we ordered lamb chops and my meat went flying across the table to his pants๐คฃ๐..I was so embarrassed..still embarrassing to date..he still teases me about it๐คฃ
When I am waiting for food in a western dining restaurant , what should be my sitting and hand posture?
here from the classroom, stayed for the slay outfits, vibe check, etc. ๐คฉ
It was useful…
Thank you for your video

When my dna test says I'm 1% British
You are an incredible lady, I admire you. Thanks for share your knowledge
I always eat with my feet, is that bad?
Love the video. Do you have one on eating olives
Beautiful classy girl
thank you
Really very much useful and helpful video. ๐๐.
Itโs ideal to be educated on European table manners, however if culturally you eat with your hands or itโs customary to slurp your noodles or soup, itโs still acceptable. Manners are relative to your acceptable cultural norms and values.
I love the way of your talking
Le south asians, we have hands and teeth to do all these ๐
Thank you,very informative.
actually the chair was used by other people before and therefore if you leave the towel on the chair, it can catch bacteria and it can injure you,when you again use it for cleaning the month,as a result diarea,herpes ,etc.Its better to order a new towel or to leave it on the table.
Can you please make a video oh what sounds to make while drinking and eating? My wife makes noises like a land mammal. How to correct it?
As an alpha male I assert dominance at the table by pouring pasta into the largest glass and then wrapping my salad in the napkin.
Good video ๐
Iโd like to suggest that you remove or greatly reduce the volume of the music in your video. It is in direct competition with your content and itโs so distracting.
As a child I was always told not to have elbows on the table, and when you have finished with your meal you put your knife and fork together, not to eat until all the guests are seated and have their food, also when me and my brothers were invited to birthday parties as children we were always made to say โthank you for having meโ

Indians be like๐คฃ๐คฃ all eating in one plate ๐ฅฒ๐ฅฒ
damn you're pretty
I actually did this at the restaurants in Japan and korea. Their chefs and managers mistakenly thought that I didn't enjoyed their food thinking it's bland, not good.
They got fired from their job.
Thanks for helping.. Now can somebody plz take me out I promise I won't embarrass you ๐๐lol!
Khana pe focus kare ya yeh seekhe itni baar mein 3 time hai lunch hojaye
Imagine studying this for a living…
I learned a few new tricks๐…but some of this is pretentious, and empty.
Thank you
So av been eating like an animal
Watching this while eating a pot noodle in bed
Beautiful video Jamila!
The only incorrect part was to take butter from the main butter dish and slather it on your piece. The proper way to butter bread is to take some from the main butter dish and place it on the upper right corner of your bread and butter plate or main dinner plate (if no separate bread and butter plate is available) and butter each bite of bread individually. Otherwise, very nice job!
Thanks alot dear
Im about to prร ctice this in my classroom during recess
Thank You so much for updating. Hv a great day
Just to add: Soup spoons don't go into your mouth like a dessert spoon might. The soup should be silently sipped from the side of the soup spoon. (Jamila does it right in the video).
To indicate that you're not finished your meal but want to take a pause from eating, put your knife and fork at the 12-6 angle then move the fork to a 12-7 angle and the knife to a 12-5 angle (like a triangle on the plate). This let's the waiter know not to remove your plate.
Taking your phone out during a meal is very bad manners also – If somebody phones you and you really have to take it , then apologize to your companion and leave the table – This should only be done in a likely emergency though especially for a man to do it to a lady as that would mean the lady is alone
