Science Meet Kitchen

"Taste is the Sum of Quality, Experience and Imagination" - Chef Heiko AntoniewiczI

 believe that not everyone is accustom to the term gastronomy because the word itself sounds complex to comprehend for those who are not immersed in food industry.

In essence, the word "gastronomy" is derived from Ancient Greek which means "stomach", and "laws that govern". From there, it is known as "the art or law of regulating the stomach".




The term is purposely all-encompassing: it subsumes all of cooking technique, nutritional facts, food science, and everything that has to do with palatability of taste and smell as human ingestion of food stuffs goes.

Gastronomy involves discovering, tasting, experiencing, researching, understanding and writing about food preparation and the sensory qualities of human nutrition as a whole.

 It also studies how nutrition interfaces with the broader culture. Later on, the application of biological and chemical knowledge to cooking has become known as molecular gastronomy, yet gastronomy covers a much broader, interdisciplinary ground.
