Pendant les processus de changement institutionnel, notamment dans les champs culturels, les acteurs combinent / hybrident souvent des marqueurs existants et des marqueurs nouvellement inventés, qui relèvent de logiques institutionnelles concurrentes. Malheureusement, nous savons très peu de choses des processus par lesquels les acteurs hybrident ces marqueurs. Les acteurs hybrident-ils les différents types de marqueurs au même moment ? Selon la même ampleur ? Le statut des acteurs affecte-t-il les processus d’hybridation ? La lutte qui marqua le champ de la Grande Cuisine Française au cours de la seconde moitié du 20ème siècle, entre Cuisine Classique et Nouvelle Cuisine, fournit un contexte empirique original pour explorer ces diverses problématiques.

  • The Art of Naming Dishes
    www.bu.edu/bhr Published by the Boston University School of Hospitality Administration Fragments of The Past: The Art of Naming Dishes By Peter Szende and Namrata Sridhar Winter 2020 © Copyright 2020 by Boston University From the start, menus have been a customer’s first impression into the restaurant’s culinary experience. Menus that have been carefully designed have drawn the customer’s eye to specific dishes and provide guidance when selecting a meal. (e.g. McCall & Lynn, 2008) Restaurant menu experts have begun to find that using consumer psychology to design their menus have a direct impact on guest purchases and total revenue. These experts have noted that how a menu item is named can influence the guest perception of the dish. “A highly descriptive name can help create value by priming the guest with positive affects.” (Yang, 2013, p. 8) While descriptive menu labels have been in the center of attention of researchers, the history and practice of naming dishes received little attention. A Brief History of Menus In part, based on Marco Polo’s travel notes in China, we could believe that during the Southern Song Dynasty, the commercially lively 13th century Hangzhou had an important restaurant scene where customers, after being seated at taverns, were handed a menu to choose dishes according to their preferences (Gernet, 1962, Szende, Pang, & Yu, 2013). Similarly, the first menus in Europe appeared at the end of the middle ages. A medieval text written in 1393 “Le Ménagier de Paris,” (The good wife’s guide) presents menus for various occasions and feasts.

  • Reinventing Classics: the Hidden Design Strategies of Renowned Chefs
    Reinventing classics: the hidden design strategies of renowned Chefs Marine Agogué(1), Armand Hatchuel(2) (1) HEC Montréal (2) Centre de GestionScientifique, Mines ParisTech, France Abstract Reinventing classics is a well-used yet complex design pattern. Indeed, a reinterpreted classic needs to relate to the original object while simultaneouslychallenging the initial model and providinga new and fresh look tothe well-established classic. However, this design strategy remains understudied, and we aim to contribute to the literature by addressing the lack of theoretical models for reinventing classics. Reinterpreting tradition is a key process for chefs in the culinary world.Our paper explores how design theories elucidate how chefs reinterpret classics and innovate in their kitchens by stepping away from tradition. Our contribution to the study of design is two- fold.First, from a methodological point of view, we used a framework based on C-K theory and axiomatic design theory to conduct a comparative analysis of recipes for 30 dishes that were reinterpreted by the renowned chef Alain Ducasse. Second, our study identifiedtwo design regimesused by chefs to reinvent classics by focusing on the nature of the set of functions a recipe aims to fulfill. The first regime consists of retaining the same functionsfrom the original recipewhile changing themeans to achieve them. The second requires changing the set of functionsby removing old ones, adding new ones and occasionally designing new ways to achieve the functions. 1. Introduction: modeling culinary innovation Reinventingclassics is a well-known design strategy used in many fields: Fiat redesigned the myth of the Fiat 500, Picasso proposed his own version of Manet’sLuncheon on the Grass, and Murakami drew cherry blossoms on the iconic Louis Vuitton Speedy handbag.

  • Chapter-1 International Cuisine
    CHAPTER-1 INTERNATIONAL CUISINE: THE COOKING OF GREAT BRITAIN Historical Background Unlike the French, the British have no Grande cuisine or customs of elegant restaurant eating. Almost everyone royalty and commoner ate the same food, however fancy or plain. The royal kitchens merely drew on a wider variety of foodstuffs and in greater quantities. Britain was a worldwide trader since the 16 th century and could afford to import the best the world had to offer from tea, coffee and rice to exotic spices and fruits and all these found their way into home cooking. The British Breakfast The British consider it their finest meal. A truly traditional British breakfast would include Baps (a soft round roll) or some other traditional bread with preserves, bacon, sausage, tomatoes, mushrooms, eggs - boiled, fried or scrambled, ham kedgeree, stewed prunes, sautéed kidneys, smoked haddock or kippers, cereals with milk and of course tea. The English breakfast owes, in particular much to the Scots. They eat an even more substantial breakfast that the English and the Welsh or the Irish. They consume vast quantities of porridge and considerable amount of bread usually in the form of a breakfast roll called a ‘Bap” and drink large quantities of tea sometimes laced with whisky. Aberdeen was the birthplace of the breakfast sausage, while Dundee is the home of marmalade without which no breakfast is completed. Bacon is in original entirely English. Ham, which also often figures on the breakfast table, is the cured hind leg of the pig. Only the English cured the pig, usually by salting, while the rest of Europe ate it fresh.

Cookery is considered to be both an art and science. The art of cooking is ancient. The first cook was a primitive man, who had put a chunk of meat close to the fire, which he had lit to warm himself. He discovered that the meat heated in this way was not only tasty but it was also much easier to masticate. From this moment, in unrecorded past, cooking has evolved to reach the present level of sophistication. Humankind in the beginning ate to survive.

  • Culinary Art: Feasts for the Eyes
    Culinary Art: Feasts for the Eyes The image of a chef poring over a plate at the pass, fastidiously pimping the presentation of a dish, is, in reality, less than 50 years old. Like most things in today’s gastronomically ambitious restaurant, you can blame it on nouvelle cuisine. A famously influential movement in French cooking, it was championed by the restaurant critics Henri Gault and Christian Millau via the eponymous guide they started publishing in 1965, the former coining the term before defining it in a manifesto in a 1973 article. Leaving aside its widely berated signatures – microscopic portions and pretentiousness the usual charges – it gave traditional haute cuisine a much-needed makeover. The emphasis was on healthier, lighter sauces, and more natural flavors, with creativity encouraged through new recipes, ingredients, and techniques to move beyond the established culinary canon famously codified by Auguste Escoffier. But another, less-noted legacy of nouvelle cuisine was that for the first time in the history of haute cuisine, it was the chefs who plated the food. Before then, the established style of service – service à la française – involved the dish being finished tableside by the chef de rang (the head waiter), who would mix, sauté, carve, or even make a sauce, before plating the food up with a garnish, and presenting it to the guests. I see this restaurant as a canvas and I’m painting it with food André Chiang at Restaurant André, Singapore With chefs of nouvelle cuisine in complete control of their plates, dishes were entirely assembled in the kitchen and increasingly artistic presentation followed.

In order to support Linguini’s choice, the case describes both the general context of Italian gourmand cuisine and the specific, geographical context around Milan. The stu- dents are asked to analyze specific issues and define the characteristics and positioning of Linguini’s new venture. Substantive issues The decision maker, chef Linguini, is described as a young chef, who, after receiving his degree in gastro- nomic sciences, has worked as an apprentice in many famous kitchens around Europe. During these years, not only has he learned to master the technicalities and the art of cooking, but was also given the chance to understand the complexity of the industry and the subtle challenges that running a restaurant entails.
