  • "Around others I think it's bad table etiquette. Call me pompous but it was just the way I was raised. "

    You described this really well; I'm the same.

    OP, I do this sometimes. Just not around others for fear of being judged badly. It's just not something that's 'proper' to do around others in public.

    • I'm not talking about in public, though I wish I was. I don't really think it's bad etiquette since it signals to the chef that you really liked the food.

      Others tend to judge you for it, though, so blah.

      And I mean with any food, doesn't have to be soup.

      • I get what you're saying. Maybe in different countries/cultures it would be acceptable. In mine it is not though.
