I have a friend who was raised with a silver spoon. The must leave something on plate only applies to eating at someones house. Home or restaurant empty plate is fine. It has to do with host having to offer more food if plate empty. By leaving food it means you are full from the meal. Rich peoples rules. Never ever show up to dinner at someones home without a gift wine, flowers or cake.

reminds me of Grandma, if you sat at the table she'd bring food and keep on bringing it until you got up (if you could ;) ).
