Details

The gastronomic identity of an individual, as well as a country, is shaped by its multicultural approach, its gastronomic discourse, and its definition of the term "gastronomy." Ideologists within this heritage field have given rise to "gastronomism," a source of both criticism and praise. The hedonistic values ​​of this cultural mode illustrate a superficial vision of a heritage that remains to be inventoried and valued. But, while it is enshrined in the very fabric of humanity, gastronomy appears to be nothing more than a diversity of cuisines and opinions defined by each individual gastronome, by their origins, education, traditions, and expertise.
