Assignment

Option 1:

Prepare and cook a three-course meal for a minimum of two persons (and select wines to partner with the food):

Research, design, and develop a three-course menu along these lines:

a. Appetizer/first course (Smaller plate of food than entrée, but served seated).
b. Entrée (including protein, starch and vegetable)
c. Dessert

An appropriate but comparable ethnic combination of courses.

Remember, you are serving 3 courses, portion sizes should be adjusted accordingly.

2. Select wines to go with each course. The same wine may be used for two of the courses. These need not be expensive wines, and it is intended for you only to drink a glass with each course.. Total wine consumption should not exceed one-half bottle per person, maximum. Each student must be 21 years or over to consume wine.Include with the report:

a. A menu listing the courses and the specific wine served at each course. Wine information on the menu should include vintage, producer, grape variety and appellation.

b. Explain the rationale for your menu items and wine selections to accompany them. Emphasis should be on why the specific wines were selected to go with each course.

c. Document the event with photographs or videos showing the different food courses and wines. Write a brief (2-3 page) evaluation of what you liked and/or disliked) of the food/wine experience. This should include an evaluation of each food and wine combination as well as a summary of how the entire meal worked together or did not work.

Option 2

Keep a food diary or food journal for two weeks. Reflect upon some of the themes in the course and how this may affect your eating habits and food dollar expenditure.

Examples of food logs or journals may be found at:

For option 2, I ask that you include at least a two-page evaluation of your eating habits (for examples how surprised were you with your eating habits? Did they change due to anything that you learnt from the course? Would you like to change anything about your eating habits in the future? if so, why?

Option 3

Review three different food applications available on the market (examples include: https://www.delish.com/food/g791/best-food-apps/

https://www.buzzfeed.com/ryankincaid/app-etizers#.bhrRxyYVV

For option 3, please write between 1-2 pages per app, and try to make the writing not just descriptive of the app, but also evaluative (for example on costs and value for money, if applicable; ease of use; originality and innovation of the app; usefulness, numbers using the app etc.)

Option 4. Investigate certain food movements and associations such as "slow food", "community gardening", "raw food", and make a report and of the findings.

Please try to write your report in an evaluative way (rather than just describing the movements or associations). Such information as numbers involved (if available) and the pros and cons of the movements and associations would be useful. Try also to find actual examples, if possible. Your report should be between 4-5 pages in length.
