I'd rather go face down in my plate to eat than subject myself to the embarrassment that is showing people how awful I am with chopsticks.

We always eat chinese or japanese with them at home or in the restaurant. We have a few good sets of them also. My DH is trying to become some sort of KungFu / Karate expert so he started using them regularly at one point. So he will be taking martial arts and eating with chopsticks I gues...

Leo needs to see it before the phase is over!!

Everytime we order pizza, Leo jokes and looks for the chopsticks inside the bag!

I can't use them at all.

Re: Can you use chopsticks?

I know the basic techniques but I never bother. My dad, who would never be expected to use them, is really good with them. It's interesting because he has a condition where he can barely manipulate his hands, then he goes and uses chopsticks all the time!!!

Re: Can you use chopsticks?

I eat with them about once every othe rmonth and I do pretty good. I try to use them if they are offered over a fork only becasue I think it's appropriate to do that seeing as you are at an ethnic rest....

Re: Can you use chopsticks?

Yes. I use them a few times a week. I used them for a twelve days straight when I went to Japan. Couldn't wait to get home to a fork, that was a bit much.

Re: Can you use chopsticks?

I'm no expert, but I can use them pretty well.

I remember once when I was a kid eating at Gasho's and using chopsticks to eat my dinner. When they brought out ice cream for dessert I still tried to use them!! Chat Icon

Re: Can you use chopsticks?

I can use chopsticks EXCEPT with rice. I know you are supposed to hold the bowl real close to your chin, but for all that work, i'd rather use a fork

I would think, given your background that you would be an expert with chopsticks! Chat Icon
