I think regardless of whatever method you use, it's rude if you don't look at the waiter or at the direction of waiter when calling for attention.
Clapping hands to call waiter. Polite or rude?

In some countries, you can only use eye contact because even raising your hand is considered rude and uncivilised.
Clapping hand is like treating them as your own personal butler, I dunno, I see this in TV shows haha |

QUOTE(Starbucki @ Jun 5 2021, 11:10 AM) I had the fortune (or misfortune?) of having dinner with a flamboyant boomer last year. I observed that he calls out to restaurant staff by clapping his hands twice. Depends laIs that an acceptable practice? If restaurant treat u like dog then sure u act like dog la |

A danger to eat with such people. You never know what extra ingredients are being serve to you. Pizza sprinkle with dandruffs in replacement of cheese and drinks mixed with nose mucus to enhance flavour....I'll leave it to your imagination.
