feasted one's eyes
Looked with pleasure
To feast one's eyes is to gaze at something with great pleasure or admiration, as if the act of looking were nourishing: She feasted her eyes on the mountain view.
The phrase suggests lingering, appreciative attention rather than a quick glance.
Often followed by "on" to specify what's being savored: He feasted his eyes on the sports car in the showroom.
