Mother was right. Manners matter and courtesy counts. Intimate Settings conducts workshops on the art and etiquette of dining. These workshops are brimming with facts and anecdotes, related in a charming and down-to-earth manner. They unravel the mysteries of what goes where, when and why. The “art” workshop is dedicated to examining entertaining etiquette and to creating beautiful table settings. The “etiquette” workshops are hands-on. Part one is the introduction to and explanation of the rules and practices of social or business dining manners. Part two puts these skills into practice. Once you have conquered dining etiquette, no matter your income or education, you are on a level playing field with everyone (even your boss or your head of government) at the table.
