Snap Mame Salad

Because of our busy lives, it is not always easy to take the time to make dinner at home. For this reason, dining at a restaurant has become as common as going to the movies. It is fun to have our meals served to us with no clean up afterwards. However, there are certain etiquette protocols that one should follow when dining at a restaurant.

The following are a number of etiquette Do’s and Don’ts when dining at a restaurant:

1. Seating: Choose a comfortable table location. Nice locations include next to a window or near an attractive view such as a lovely wall picture. Make sure you are not seated in a high traffic area as this will be a constant distraction

2. Don’t treat the wait staff poorly. They are there to fulfill all of your dining needs. As well, this is how they are earning an income so being rude or obnoxious makes their job unpleasant and stressful. If your server makes a mistake with your order, or your food is not cooked properly, don’t yell at the server. Be courteous and kind when sending food back.

3. Use good manners when you are eating. For instance, chew with your mouth closed and don’t put too much food in your mouth. Don’t use bread for dipping in soups or soaking up sauces. Don’t make loud noises when eating. Don’t talk with a full mouth. Don’t put your elbows on the table. Use utensils when eating. Eat at the same speed as your guests. Don’t pick your teeth or lick your fingers at the table. Don’t cut your food in pieces that are too big. You don’t want to sit there chewing on a big chunk of meat, especially if you are on a date.

4. Keep your cell phone turned off. Talking on a cell phone is rude to your guests as well as the rest of the people dining.

5. Don’t move your plate away when have finished your meal. Wait until the server returns to take it away. Your guests do not want to look at uneaten food.

Swap out the almonds with toasted or raw coconut, toasted sunflower seeds, walnut pieces, pecan pieces, or dried cranberries. Instead of the lemon yogurt, try strawberry, peach, blueberry, or plain Greek style yogurt and instead of the nutmeg, use cinnamon, or a nutmeg and cinnamon combination, or honey. You are only limited by your imagination.

For a simple dessert, try serving this salad in mini graham cracker tart shells or you could try preparing the fruit salad without the yogurt and instead layer the fruit and the yogurt in alternating layers in parfait glasses.

Another simple presentation is to serve the fruit salad over a bed of sliced strawberries or salad greens with warm rolls on the side for a light and quick meal
