In my experience, Iranians enjoy eating on the floor. Or, better said, on the carpets which are on the floor. Which means you end up having your feet at the same level of the dish! It often happened when we were in our friends’ houses and also in traditional restaurants. To tell the truth, I find more confortable to eat with the help of a chair and a table, without the need to change position every five minutes because your back or legs hurt. In this regard, I strongly believe that the European way is superior (as fork and knife are clearly superior to sticks). 🙂
