Hey foodies! Heading to Fukuoka soon and want to make sure I don't make any dining faux pas. Any tips on how to eat like a local?

Hey there! When dining in Fukuoka, remember to say "Itadakimasu" before eating and "Gochisosama deshita" after finishing your meal to show gratitude. Slurping noodles like ramen is totally okay and even appreciated! If using chopsticks, avoid sticking them upright in food, as it resembles a funeral ritual. Feel free to call for the waiter by saying "Sumimasen" when you need assistance. Also, try not to leave food on your plate, as it can be seen as rude. Enjoy exploring local dishes like Hakata ramen and motsunabe. Don't hesitate to ask for recommendations from locals. Most importantly, have fun immersing yourself in Fukuoka's delicious food culture!
