Abstract

Introduction: our tastes and expectations There is a saying “some people eat to live; some people live to eat”. Perhaps for many people in the world, and for most of the time, it is true that we eat to live: just to stay alive. But at other times, and especially for people on holiday, there are occasions when we really do live to eat. We look for places where the meal will be an experience to be enjoyed: an experience to be anticipated with excitement, to be relished in the fulfilment, to be remembered with satisfaction.
