There are great differences between Chinese and western food styles, and this difference also has an impact on national character. In China, any banquet, no matter for what purpose, has only one form, that is, everyone sits together and enjoys a seat. Banquets should use round tables to create a United, polite and interesting atmosphere in form. Food is placed in the center of a table, which is not only the object of appreciation and tasting, but also the medium of emotional communication. People toast each other, offer food to each other and exhort each other, which embodies the virtue of mutual respect and courtesy between people in the face of beautiful things. Although from the perspective of hygiene, this kind of diet has obvious shortcomings, but it conforms to the universal mentality of "happy reunion" of our nation, embodies the influence of the category of "harmony" in China's classical philosophy on later generations' thoughts, and is conducive to collective emotional exchange, so it is difficult to reform so far.

Although food and wine are very important at western-style banquets, they are actually used as foil. The core of the banquet is friendship, which is realized by talking to the guests next door. If the sociality of banquets is compared to dancing, it can be said that Chinese banquets are like group dances, while western banquets are like ballroom dancing for men and women. It can be seen that the purpose of friendship between Chinese banquet and western banquet is obvious, but Chinese banquet is more about the friendship of the whole banquet, while western banquet is more about the friendship between neighboring guests. The more obvious difference from China's diet is the buffet which is popular in the west. This method is: all the food is displayed one by one, and everyone needs what they want, so they can move freely without being fixed in their seats. This way facilitates the emotional communication between individuals, without putting all the words on the table, and also reflects the respect of westerners for individuality and self. But each eats his own food, does not interfere with each other, and lacks some China people's mood of chatting and having fun.

So in the final analysis, it is the difference between sensibility and rationality. However, this difference seems to be blurred with the development of science. More and more people in China are not only concerned about the color, smell and taste of vegetables, but also about their hygiene and nutrition. Especially after SARS. Also, because people are getting busier and busier at work, they think Chinese food is too much trouble to cook, so it's better to have a hamburger or something. In this way, the difference in diet is not obvious.

The banquet must use a round table, which formally creates an atmosphere of unity, courtesy and common interest. Delicious food is placed in the center of people's dining table, which is not only the object of appreciation and tasting, but also the medium of emotional communication.

Western-style banquets, food and wine are important, but in fact they play a foil role. The core of the banquet is friendship, which can be achieved by talking with the guests next door. If we compare banquet friendship with dance, we can say that Chinese banquet is like a group dance, while western banquet is like a ballroom dance for men and women. It can be seen that the friendship purpose of Chinese banquet and western banquet is obvious, but Chinese banquet now embodies more complete dining friendship, while western banquet embodies more friendship between neighbors. What is more obvious with the law of pool is that all the food 1 1 is displayed, and everyone needs what they want, so they don't have to be fixed in their seats to eat and walk freely. This way is conducive to emotional communication between individuals, not necessarily hanging all the speeches on the table, but also showing Westerners' respect for individuality and self-esteem. However, we eat our own food and don't harass each other, lacking the emotional appeal of some China people chatting happily.

Therefore, in the final analysis, it is the difference between sensibility and rationality. However, this difference seems to be in a blur with the development of science. More and more people in China no longer only pay attention to the color, fragrance and taste of vegetables, but pay attention to their health and nutrition. Especially after experiencing irregularities. Also, people feel that Chinese food is too troublesome at first because of their increasingly busy work, and they are not interested in Hamburg facilities. Then the difference in diet is not obvious.
