Sharing food in Ethiopia

In Ethiopian dining it’s common for people to share a single large platter of food, often without utensils. Using your right hand to tear off a piece of injera (a flatbread) and scoop up a portion of the dish is the right way to go.

Tipping is not customary in Japan and can even be seen as disrespectful. The Japanese believe that good service should be the standard, not an extra incentive. If you want to express your gratitude, you can bow, pay them compliments or keep it simple and just say arigato (thank you).
