Father Clifford Pinto explained dining customs for us.<\/p>

In India there is a long-standing tradition where the whole family is together, they sit with a crossed legs and eat on the ground. While eating, they cut off all the other activities and concentrate just on a food and family. This kind of sitting is healthy for our body posture, and joints and strengthens many muscles. We usually eat just with our right hand and hygiene before eating is very important. In some parts of India, people are used to eating with cutlery. The food is being served in metal bowls and plates or often on a banana leaf. Banana leaf adds special aroma to the food and underlines its taste. According to Ayurvedic teaching, each finger represents one element and eating with your hands should help you better perceive food’s taste, texture, and smell.<\/p><\/div>
