It is very wonderful for lovers to have a romantic dinner together. In order to enrich the date and achieve a perfect ending, it's not a bad idea to learn some dining etiquette.
When the two people on a date enter the restaurant and the waiter brings the menu, the woman should not order directly. The proper way is for the woman to ask the man for suggestions or to let him know what she would like to eat, then let the man order for the service staff.
The main reason why women should not order directly is to give men full initiative to control their budget. Sometimes, the man may not have too much money in his pocket. If the woman orders expensive dishes without considering the man's budget, it will be very embarrassing if the man can't pay the bill. Moreover, by letting the man take charge of arranging the meal, it highlights that the woman is the respected and cared-for party.
