It depends on the restaurant. I don't know the etiquette for a very formal restaurant but, If you are going to somewhere to sit down and eat a meal there are some things that you should always do.

1. Never have your elbows on the table.

2. Place your napkin on your lap.

3. Don't lick your fingers.

4. If your phone rings either excuse yourself or ignore it.

What is proper etiquette regarding the customer moving his empty plate aside when finished prior to the waiter removing it?

In regular restaurants it is etiquette if the customer chooses to put their knife and fork side by side and move their plate to the right in order for the waiter or waitress to see it and pick it up. In higher end restaurants it is not etiquette to move your own plate, but place the knife and fork across the plate so the waiter or waitress can see that you are finished eating and should quickly take your plate away.

What are the table manners in Ecuador?

international dining etiquetteEcuadorDining etiquette in Ecuador is similar to the rules of dining etiquette in the other Andean and South American countries. The dining etiquette information below presents Ecuadorian variations from general dining etiquette of Andean and South American as found on the Colombian dining etiquette page. Dining etiquette. If you need to call a waiter in a restaurant, raise your hand subtly, catch his eye, and softly say senor or mozo (for a waiter, specifically). Contrary to the Colombian custom, you probably will not be invited into an Ecuadorian home for dinner, at least at first, but you will likely be invited into their home for a party; parties start very late, around 10 P.M., with people often not arriving until 11 P.M., and they go till and past dawn. A party is a Saturday night event, exclusively. The meal, if there is one, is usually breakfast, just before people leave after dawn has broken. The idea is to drink, dance, and have fun; have your dinner before you set out for the party because the only food there will typically be snacks and appetizers.
