1. Introduction
Food has different degrees of separations in material, tastes, cooking ways and eating habits that depend on regional characteristics, environment and custom. With these separations, food has its own strong features. Between China and England, there is a difference of culture coming from different thinking ways and philosophy which cause the difference of food culture. This difference also influences national character. In China, a banquet has only one form--with people seated around and enjoying one table of food. The table must be round forming an atmosphere of unity, politeness and joyfulness.
