What is the dining etiquette in Canada?


What is the dining etiquette in Canada? Table manners are generally Continental, i.e. the fork is held in the left hand and the knife in the right while eating. Eating with an open mouth or talking with a full mouth is considered rude and do not begin eating until the hostess starts or rest your elbows on the table.


Do you tip for dinner in Canada?

Gratuities are seldom included in Canadian restaurants. It is customary to tip approximately 15-20% on the total bill before tax, less for poor service, more for truly exceptional service. Many restaurants may charge an automatic 15-18% gratuity for larger groups.
