Question
After the Shabbat meal at the table, I move to the couch to talk with family members. I wanted to ask if it is permissible to recite the Grace After Meals there, or if one must return to their place and recite it at the table?
Answer
You can recite the Grace After Meals in the same room where you ate, but on the couch, you should sit and not recline in a manner of pride.
