Question about ご

ご注文はお決まりですか

Why is ご used in front of ちゅうもん （注文）

Thanks

It's an honorific just like お＋茶＝お茶
I don't know why some words use お and other words use ご.
Another common word that takes ご is 家族.

Some good explanations in this thread:

お　honorific

Can you attach お to any noun to make it 'honorific'? In my reading I see おさけ (osake) to make sake honorific. Or,　おげんきですか has it as well. Can you do this with any noun? Or only certain ones?

OK, thanks for explaining it to me.
