    1 WILLIAM F. HARRAH COLLEGE OF HOTEL ADMINISTRATION UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA, LAS VEGAS Fall 2016 CULTURE AND CUISINE FAB 333 – Section 1003 Class Room: BEH 233 Monday 2:30 PM – 5:15 PM Email via Blackboard WebCampus OFFICE HOURS: Monday (12:30pm ‐2:30 pm) & Wed (2:30 pm‐ 5:30 pm) COURSE DESCRIPTION: Food is a necessary commodity for all persons – both for sustenance necessary to maintain life and for the social facets of life associated with meals. The foods eaten and the eating (or meal or dining) practices of people are very much integrated into the overall heritage of the culture. The geographical and economic environment of a region or cultural area also has a significant impact on foods – their availability and usage. Different cultures and/or different ethnic groups have traditional foods and preparation and eating practices associated with them. The United States has been referred to as a "melting pot" of many different cultures that have been, and are being, fused to form the "American" culture. Not only is the United States a fusion of foods and cultures, but the increasing globalization of all aspects of life is consistently increasing the cross‐ cultural approach to foods and the need for an understanding of the many multi‐ethnic, socio‐cultural practices associated with foods, food preparation and dining, family structures and behaviors, cultural lifestyles, and the blending of foods and food practices throughout the cultures of the world. This course will focus on the exploration of the foods, eating practices, and customs – both today and historically – associated with foods of the different cultures and/or ethnic groups that have become, or are becoming, integral parts of the American culture and how today's foods are a reflection of these many sources.

  • Afternoon Tea Menu Welcome to Afternoon Tea at Claridge’S
    AFTERNOON TEA MENU WELCOME TO AFTERNOON TEA AT CLARIDGE’S IT IS WITH GREAT PLEASURE that we welcome you to Afternoon Tea at Claridge’s. The creation of this thoroughly English institution is credited to a lifelong friend of Queen Victoria, Anna Maria Russell, who was looking for a means of avoiding hunger pangs in the long gap between an early lunch and a late supper. At Claridge’s we’ve been observing this delightful aspect of our nation’s culinary heritage for the best part of 150 years. For a century or more, our Executive Chefs have remained faithful to the classic combination of finger sandwiches, scones served warm, and sweet pastries accompanied by a remarkable selection of wonderful loose leaf tea. Our ingredients are painstakingly sourced, skilfully prepared and served fresh each day. The centrepiece of afternoon tea is, of course, the drink itself. Our wonderful tea connoisseur, Henrietta Lovell, has scoured the world to bring us delicious tea from small, little known producers from the four corners of the world. Working hand in hand with our Executive Chef, Martyn Nail, they have carefully selected teas that will complement your food perfectly and all tea is prepared and poured at your table to your preferred strength. Your afternoon tea is served from a specially designed stand and on the very finest bone china and silverware, both made to a unique Claridge’s design. Around you is the splendour of Thierry Despont’s magnificent Foyer, inspired by the 1930s’ heyday of art deco. Over the next few pages you’ll discover the degree of care that goes into each cup of tea and morsel of food as well as some of the little secrets that make Afternoon Tea at Claridge’s such a magical experience.
