Just had the most fascinating dinner in a tiny Lisbon family restaurant! The way locals handle their cutlery here is like a secret dance—so different from formal dinners back home. Almost dropped my fork trying to imitate them, but the chef laughed and showed me properly. These little moments make traveling magical. Who wants to swap stories about unexpected table manners you’ve learned abroad? (And yes, the son of the restaurant owner did teach me… he had such lovely hands.) 😉
