There is no better way to show one's upbringing than dining at the table. Your manners will tell people whether you are cultured and well-mannered. Dining etiquette has an important role in social etiquette. As a matter of fact, a person needs knowledge and practice of communication skills, body language (deportment), conversational skills, and image & styling before he/she can sit down at a fine dining table. The traditional English afternoon tea falls into the category of fine dining, it is quintessentially British.
