Soup Etiquette • There are two types of soup spoons: a round deep spoon for broth and a long narrow spoon for cream soups. • For clear soups, there will be a bowl with no under plate. For cream soups, there will be a plate underneath to put your spoon in between bites. This is because clear soup will not leave a mess and cream soups will! • Soup is always spooned away from you. If you must tilt your bowl to get at your soup, tilt away from you. • Avoid leaning over the bowl and no slurping, and sit up as straight as possible. • Sip the soup from the end or the side and avoid putting the whole spoon in your mouth or you will choke. • If your soup is too hot, skim from the top, not the bottom where heat permeates. • Never blow on your soup as it will splatter! • When you are finished (and in between bites), if your soup has a rim bowl, the spoon stays there in between bites. If not, the spoon stays in the bowl.
