I go to nice hotel dinners and eat expensive food, but my papa has terrible table manners, and I’m embarrassed to sit next to him.
This content is machine-translated.
He picks up food that’s hard to get onto his fork with his fingers and puts it on that way.
He drops crumbs and spills food everywhere.
It’s unsightly, embarrassing, and honestly sad.
Even though he takes me to such nice places, that’s the only thing I remember afterward.
Would you say something to him?

If you’re embarrassed by that man’s poor manners, why not just end things with him?
If it were me, I’d find it adorable watching him desperately try to get the food onto his fork and would giggle a little. If you stared at him with a completely straight face, he’d probably feel terribly embarrassed.
Watch him try with an affectionate, fond expression. You could even feed him yourself, if you wanted.

I don’t think I could bring it up.
It’s definitely not pleasant to have dinner with someone who has poor table manners. I’d probably have no idea where to look.
That said, I can’t exactly claim to be perfect myself, so I’d take it as an opportunity to learn what eating habits to avoid.
If it’s truly unbearable, maybe ask them to choose a restaurant with side-by-side seating!

I don’t think there’s much point in bringing it up, so just decide whether you can continue seeing him as things are. If you can’t, I think it would be best to stop seeing him going forward.
