Having gone out with my Asian in-laws I had to get used to the idea of nobody getting their own dish. Dishes are bought for the entire table and shared. Many Chinese restaurants will even have a lazy susan (a spinning disk in the middle of the table) that makes it easy to move dishes around and keep them accessible.

Do they eat each item like courses, or mixed?
Envision it like “family style” at an Italian restaurant, or how you eat at home. “Pass the potatoes,” etc.
It’s like a customized buffet at your table.
You just pile up what you want on the plate
