= gourmet = someone who likes to cook and eat good food
- And since I am a gastronome, I take deep pride in our national dish. I have survived through famines and situations that were much worse, but there, in that forsaken country where we didn't know what was to become of us, it was the lack of kimchi that would bother me the most. (Kim - Thousand Miles)
- I mean, I wish I were a gourmand or a club gastronomer, but, well, you see the sort of meals I get!’ (He jabbed a finger into the corner, where on a little table a small tin plate contained the remnants of a horrible dish of beefsteak and potatoes.) (Dostoyevsky - Crime and Punishment)
