"So you have been invited to a five-star restaurant, going to make it sound really fancy, let's take a look at some tips to know what to do. Hi, I'm Hazely Lopez from Hazely Academy of Refinement and Modeling and I'm here to talk to you about how to behave in a five-star restaurant. Well, you first may want to take a look at the menu before you actually get to the table. You want to make sure that you're kind of familiar with what you're going to be eating in that night, that's going to make it a lot easier to actually talk to the server when he comes in and get your order. You also want to make sure that you make reservations and arrive early to them. Busy five-stars can be little bit difficult to get in. You also want to make sure that when you're eating, you put your napkin on your lap and once you're done, "excuse me", before you're done, if you need to go stand up and you need to go to the bathroom, you leave the napkin on your chair. This will help the server know that you're not done. If you are done, you may set the table, you may set the napkin in the table. Also, you may want to be sure that you order appetizers when you're in a five-star restaurant, it is expected to order appetizers. At the same time if you're ordering a wine, you may want to make sure that you ask for a suggestion. There are no returns for an open wine, unless there's something wrong with it. Also remember that hosts eat before you do. So make sure you give them that opportunity. I'm Hazely Lopez from Hazely Academy of Refinement and Modeling and I hope you enjoy your dinner at a five-star restaurant."
