Social Skills 101: An Essential Dining Etiquette Guide A valuable client is in town and needs to be entertained. You are interviewing for a great new job and your prospective employer suggests you go out for lunch. You are on a first date with someone special. It is time to finally ask your boss for a raise. No problem, right? You are charming, well-dressed, funny, smart, and successful. Everybody loves you. You are going to knock'em dead......but, what about your table manners? Pass the bread the wrong way and your valuable client thinks you are clumsy. Grab your prospective employer's water glass by mistake and she begins to question your poise under pressure. Argue with the waiter and someone special decides you are really a jerk. Tear at your lobster like an animal and you can stop worrying about getting a raise and start worrying about keeping your job. Dining etiquette matters. Whether you are a new intern at your first formal business dinner, or a seasoned professional out for a power lunch, business meals are big business.

Very good CD. Well worth the money spent. I was impressed enough to also buy a copy for my nephew, who is graduating from college soon, since he's going to be entering the business world and could use a quick refresher on appropriate etiquette.

As a mom of two young boys it's not often I get to practice proper restaurant etiquette so this CD was a great refresher before my husband and I treated ourselves to a nice dinner out! It provided some etiqutte tips I'd never learned before as well as a general refresher of all those little niceties we knew at one time but have perhaps since forgotten. Short enough to be used often, it consists of several "units" so it can be listened to in short segments or you can just refer to the one or ones you need at the moment.

It's nice to see a product like this out there. In addition to banking clients, we have used it with our employees too. We are really glad we got them. Along with being a great gift it has great value when we take employees to formalized events and dinners. I would highly recommend this CD series to any professional business organization.

Trying to remember all of the rules of dining etiquette can be difficult. This Food Scholar CD made it easy and fun. I also purchased the Food Scholar CD about wine. I notice how much more confident I feel when I'm in nicer restaurants, where knowing the proper etiquette is important. The CD is organized into chapters(tracks) that makes finding subjects for review easy.
