Cool! Get the chopsticks and that table with the hole in the middle, and four chairs...

I worked for a US defense contractor which had a contract with Indonesia to build facilities and train the locals to build our products. This was near 1990.

Several from my dept. went there for a 6 mo. stay. A couple of months in, our Company Pres. and some other Execs went there.

To greet them, the Indonesians had a formal dinner. Everyone was seated on the floor around a table. The hosts cut the top of the skull off of a monkey, whose head was poking up through a hole in the table. Everyone was expected to taste the “delicacy”.
