All rights reserved The Art of Being a Good Guest...When responding to an informal invitation to someone's home for a meal, one should bring a small gift. Flowers, chocolates, a plant, and fine soap are appropriate. An even better choice is something from your native country if you happen to have brought it. Never bring alcohol unless you're very, very good friends. Bringing a bottle of wine is an American custom that just doesn't translate into good manners. Now, if you receive a formal invitation to dinner by a Public Official, Foreign Consulate, or VIP, then flowers are a safe choice. But never arrive with the flowers in hand! They should be sent before or after the occasion.
