Dining in Afghanistan is a Different Experience
- Remove your shoes at the door if visiting a home.
- If eating at someone's home, you will be seated on the floor
- Food is served on plastic or vinyl tablecloths spread on the floor.
- Wait to be shown where to sit.
- Sit cross-legged. Otherwise sit as comfortably as you can. Do not site with legs outstretched and your feet facing people.
- Food will be shared from the same dish.
- Do not eat with the left hand.
- Always pass and receive things using your right hand.
- Food is eaten with the hands. Food is usually scooped up into a ball at the tip of the fingers, then eaten.
- Leave food on your plate otherwise it will keep getting filled up again.
