Dear paul,
I am glad to hear that you'll come to China later.Let me introduce you something about the habit of using Chinese food.
Firstly,you may devote yourself to the Chinese custom. As it saying "When in Roma,do as Romen do." And then,try your best using chopstick. Lastly,eat rice for lunch and super.
Yours,
Lihua
