gastronomic
Concerning fine dining
Gastronomic relates to the art and science of good eating—the preparation, presentation, and appreciation of fine food.
A gastronomic tour explores regional cuisines; gastronomic delights are culinary pleasures worth savoring.
The word carries connotations of sophistication and expertise beyond mere eating: The restaurant offers a gastronomic experience, not just a meal.
