Gesture & etiquette

Place the tray gently—no clatter. Position it so they can see all items. Briefly name each dish ('今日は鮭の塩焼きと、お味噌汁、ほうれん草のお浸しです'). Wait for them to pick up chopsticks before stepping away. Check back in 5-10 minutes.

Standard meal-serving phrase. 「お持ちしました」 is humble form of 「持ってきました」. 「ごゆっくり」 (take your time) is a kindness—seniors often eat slowly and may feel rushed without permission to linger. 「召し上がる」 is the honorific form of 「食べる」. Always set the tray within easy reach and announce what dishes are on it.
