| description | This article studies the importance of the
Mediterranean diet in the menus of
restaurants in the city of Barcelona. It is based
on a review of previous studies about the great
influence of the Mediterranean culture on daily
aspects such as food. A qualitative study was
conducted and a sample of experts—head
chefs at restaurants in Barcelona—was
selected. The results show that the
Mediterranean diet is positioned in the minds
of their customers; therefore, all the decisions
related to the purchase of products and the
planning of menus and dishes are made
following the guidelines of the Mediterranean
diet. This study is an important contribution to
the research field of culture in consumption habits, because it confirms that the
Mediterranean diet still is strongly preferred
over new foods, dishes and foreign menus. The
habits of consumers remain true to their
culinary traditions. |
