BEHAVIOUR IN A ROOM

The Japanese tend to eat with chopsticks. By covering the table, put on the left - a bowl of rice, and on the right - the soup. Sticks lie parallel to them. The right hand holds a baton, and the left puts a bowl of rice or soup. Just drink the soup straight from the bowl - to the other plates and bowls dating back to chopsticks. Before the meal, say "Itadakimasu" and after a meal, "Gochiso deshita-sama." This is equivalent to our "tasty" and "thank you" :)
