Nov 3 2007, 10:06 PM EDT Some of the trends to look for in 2008! Health is still strong with Bans on Trans Fats and Foie Gras(Some say it’s for the geese and ducks, some say it’s for health). There is also a ground swell again concerning “Organic”. Asian cuisine will stay strong especially with the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. A lot of visitors will be tasting authentic Asian cuisine for the first time. This will probably carry over to 2010 when Shanghai will host the World Exposition. The “Slow Food” movement should also see renewed interest as people start getting nostalgic for home flavors. We will probably see Molecular Gastronomy grow as the lines between science and culinary continue to blend in kitchens laboratories. One of my favorites that is on the up swing is salt and sweet—nothing like a salted rim for my hot chocolate. Tea is coming to the forefront of hot beverages and is now becoming a visual too. Expect to see the continued growth of “Small Plates” and “Mini Deserts” as these style Restaurants are being seen from Seattle to Chicago, Atlanta to our very own San Antonio And in San Antonio—Tasty Margaritas Are always the TREND! Do you find this valuable? |
