UNESCO Honors the French Gastronomic Meal

UNESCO adds the Gastronomic Meal of the French, filmed mostly in Paule Caillat of Promenades Gourmandes kitchen, to its World Immaterial Heritage list. A great honor!

The gastronomic meal of the French is a customary social practice for celebrating important moments in the lives of individuals and groups, such as births, weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, achievements and reunions. It is a festive meal bringing people together for an occasion to enjoy the art of good eating and drinking. The gastronomic meal emphasizes togetherness, the pleasure of taste, and the balance between human beings and the products of nature.
