The traditional western meal has the appetizer arrive first... the main arrive second and the dessert last... with other courses interspersed. I know that in Asia, this is a bit different. All the courses come, whenever (to the point that it's really when dishes come up, they come up).
As for faux pas... that is the English word (even though it's French).
