It is by his choice of wines that a man's nationality becomes most apparent. An Englishman will have a cocktail and drink cham pagne all through the dinner. A Frenchman has sherry with his soup, white wine with his fab, then a burgundy, followed by champagne, port, and liqueurs.

Danes and Swedes drink a lot of spizite peculiar to their own. country. The German drinks heer, and Spaniards and South Americans drink mostly minerals

The most generous and courte. ous nationality to serve is the English. The Englishman is very particular about his food, but when he has made up his mind what he wants he has it without any more fuss.
