The authors of The Perfect Meal examine all of the
elements that contribute to the diner s experience of a meal
(primarily at a restaurant) and investigate how each of the
diner s senses contributes to their overall multisensory
experience. The principal focus of the book is not on flavor
perception, but on all of the non-food and beverage factors that
have been shown to influence the diner s overall
experience.
Examples are:
* the colour of the plate (visual)
* the shape of the glass (visual/tactile)
* the names used to describe the dishes (cognitive)
* the background music playing inside the restaurant (aural)
Novel approaches to understanding the diner s experience
in the restaurant setting are explored from the perspectives of
decision neuroscience, marketing, design, and psychology.
