Greeks won’t Give You a Knife
If you are at a taverna eating, cutlery often comes in the bread basket, and you may not get a knife or fork and need to ask someone, even a waiter for one. Don’t be surprised if the knife is not placed in your outstretched hand. A knife will always be placed on a surface, not in your hand as Greeks believe that placing a knife in another person’s hand means that they will have a fight or an argument.
