Perfect score. But only because I got the fish one by luck, and my cousin is studying in Spain and we talked about tapas bars.

I got 8. I'd submit that the answer to the first on is different depending on whether you are a kid eating with the family or a guest at a formal meal. Toward the end I was just guessing.

I'm from an English family, and I use my knife & fork to eat "Pulke", chicken legs. "Hey", said my old man, "if it was okay for Queen Victoria to eat so, you can have that much etiquette".

8 out of 11. That last one was not a guess...I watched a japanese man do it in a noodle shop and got totally grossed out. Now I know why he was doing it. I thought he was just a slob.

In Japan, I was asked by my host family to start slurping while eating noodles. It's called "zuru-zuru" and I always had to apologize because I usually forgot.
There's even a right way to do it so you don't get gas.

Of course, asking for ketchup, in France or elsewhere, will never be an issue for me. I carry packets in my purse.

I live with a man who eats with his right hand. Oh heck, I do, too, to tell the truth. I am officially an international cuisinist. I got 'em all.

About ketchup, That's right we don't ask it on a great restaurant, but in little restaurant, you have no problem with that. But, in fact, you have not a need of that : lot of plats have their "sauces".
So I respond, "Catsup, s'il vous plait." because when we are polit, we obtain what you want.
