describe the dinner time ritual that the campers follow before they eat in Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief
Answers
The Dining Pavilion is an area of Camp Half-Blood where the demigods, satyrs, and camp directors eat their meals. The pavilion is framed in Greek columns on a hill that overlooks the sea. There are no walls or roof that cover the mess hall. Torches blaze from the columns and a central fire burning inside a bronze brazier the size of a bathtub. Each table has a white cloth with purple trim. In The Titan's Curse, Nico di Angelo and Percy Jackson were attacked by skeletons that rose out of the ground, while Nico was getting upset with Percy for not keeping his sister, Bianca di Angelo, alive. Nico stormed down into the Underworld and closed the crevasse back up. Thus, leaving a thin gray scar in the middle of the pavilion.
The pavilion's goblets are enchanted, and, on voice command, will be filled with whatever drink you desire (non-alcoholic, except Mr. D who is forced to drink Diet Coke). Another quality of the goblets is that they never empty. The type of food in the Pavilion include BBQ, grapes, apples, strawberries, cheese, and fresh bread, that the wood nymphs serve. As stated in The Lightning Thief when they go to Aunty Em's, the food at Camp Half-Blood is healthy.
The tables in the Pavilion are arranged so that there is a table for each god, similar to the cabins. Therefore, children of Hermes sit at the Hermes table, children of Aphrodite at the Aphrodite table, etc. Although children of the Big Three often have to sit on their own anyways, it is expressly forbidden to sit at another god's table. The one exception to this is Nico, who has a doctors note from Will Solace that lets him sit at the Apollo table. Hunters sit at the Artemis table when visiting, and the satyrs and nymphs can sit at any table they please, but generally sit at the table that Dionysus sits at, which is table 12.
Every night the half-bloods tribute a portion of their food to the gods by burning it in the pavilion fire. According to Luke, the gods like the smell of the burnt food. Hestia takes a small part of each tribute.

Answer:
Offering to the gods.
Explanation:
The dining pavilion is where the campers eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The food served is a diet primary of grapes, cheese, bread, and extra lean, nymph-cut barbecue and you can ask whatever you want to drink (although Coke does not have the same flavor). Each cabin has their own tables and campers are not allowed to sit at a table that is not their cabin's (Annabeth Chase broke this rule to speak with Percy in The Battle of the Labyrinth only while talking about the quest.) The tables are covered with a white tablecloth fringed with purple. At the center of the pavilion is the bonfire. It is lit during the dinners. At the beginning of each meal, each cabin takes turns going up to the fire and dropping in a share of their best food as an offering for the gods (because the gods like the smell). Hestia, the goddess of the hearth, gets a portion of each offering.
