PHILIPPINES 101: Meal Invitation Etiquette

This video, PHILIPPINES 101: Meal Invitation Etiquette, by PaperbugTV, talks about the nuances of Filipino meal invitation etiquette. It is generally considered impolite to eat in front of others without inviting them to join in. However, it is customary for the invitee to decline the first invitation as a matter of politeness. The second invitation may also be declined, but the third invitation should be accepted, as declining it a third time may cause offense.
