What is the standard for being a foodie?

I am a foodie. Let me tell you my standards.

First of all, foodies must have an open mind. Whether it is a fly restaurant or a Michelin restaurant, you can still have fun and enjoy eating. Each has its own characteristics, and I love different cuisines, traditional food, and exotic food. Foodies know no borders. This is the food culture of all mankind, respecting, tolerating and integrating. Foodies play a very important role in promoting and promoting cultural exchanges between countries and all walks of life.

Foodies must have a delicate and sensitive heart. You can't be like Zhu Bajie who eats ginseng fruit. He eats the same thing and only wants to fill his stomach. This kind of eating is too low-level. It’s not a derogatory sense, at least filling one’s stomach in such a hasty way does not reflect the host’s thoughtful hospitality.

Not to mention the color, smell, shape and meaning of the food, it is all prepared by the chef with great care. Besides, the environment is also very particular. What tableware is used, what tablecloth is used, what wine, desserts and fruits are paired with it. Lighting, music, seats, dining environment decoration and service all constitute the overall dining experience. While dining, feel the entire environment, discover and enjoy beauty in the process. Not just delicious food, but beautiful scenery and beautiful people.

Foodies must have a certain understanding of food and the food culture of our country and even around the world.

I can’t serve a dish. I only know it’s delicious, but I don’t know what it is, what its value and characteristics are? You have to have your own unique insights and perspectives on various ingredients and cooking methods. For example, many of the dishes or desserts have stories and origins, which not only make people eat delicious food, but also convey an idea.

Not everyone can be a foodie, but foodies are also the best among people and the leaders in the industry.
