Greece and Rome (14-15) The ancient Greeks didnt really dine out, but they did enjoy food in a social aspect, they had private clubs (lesche) and other establishments(phatnai) for travelers traders, and visiting diplomats. The romans desired for exotic foods and spices, so trade was a huge part of stretching their empire. As they expanded their power, they became wealthy and started to banquet with friends, clients, etc. Middle Ages (16) Within the middle ages the ancient Nordic myths beliefs (in which one could not cut down trees or diverting river water, or else the gods would be displeased) ceased, which led to an increase of agriculture and hunting. A feudal society was developed, which unlike the romans and Greeks, the only purpose of the middle ages was to eat.

Renaissance through French Revolution (17-18) People would show off by using exotic spices that were obtained via the spice trade. The expansion Greek and roman created the haute cuisine, in a system in which food is prepared. The first coffeehouse (caf) was opened in 1650 in oxford, England, they were airy and inviting. Guilds were associations of people who had similar interest and/or professions. In 1765, Boulanger started serving hot soups(restaurers) in his caf, he started calling it restorante, which is the origin of the word restaurant. His restorante became popular, and even though food guilds took his case to court Paris ended having over 500 restaurants within 30 years.

The Gilded Age (22-23) When the wealthy dinned out they dined with style, by going to fancy restaurants which surrounded everyone with elegance. Up to 18 courses were not uncommon. But in 1848 gold was discovered and people rushed California, and more people rushed than restraunts nad meeting the demand was nearly impossible, as a result an assembly-line(cafeteria)was created that was cheaper, and quicker. The 20th Century (23-27)
