Social Dining in the Mediterranean
Socializing for the Love of Food
Your Seat at the Table
Each evening, you’ll have the chance to sit back, relax, and enjoy a lovingly prepared meal with a glass of wine or two.
Savour fresh, local seasonal dishes that celebrate the best regional ingredients at local places or around your host’s table.
Every feast is the culmination of the day’s discoveries and a delicious tribute to the dedication of the artisans, growers, and chefs you’ll meet.
Along with being believers in sustainable and seasonal experiences, we also celebrate that what makes Mediterranean cuisine so special, its simplicity.
On your trip with feast, all your meals are included, so you don’t need to take out your wallet at any time.
While we visit Michelin-starred restaurants, we also revel in the traditional kitchen of the osteria and the street food stall.
You will eat as the locals do, at a table a stone’s throw from where the food was grown or crafted, and letting the freshness of good ingredients speak for itself.

Social Dining and the Mediterranean Diet
The Mediterranean Diet is more than just a list of foods or a nutritional table.
It is a way of life that encompasses a set of skills, knowledge, rituals, symbols and traditions concerning the cultivation, harvesting, fishing, farming, preserving, cooking and especially the sharing and consumption of food.
Eating together is the basis of cultural identity and continuity of communities in the Mediterranean basin, where the values of hospitality, neighborliness, intercultural dialogue and creativity are combined with respect for the land and biodiversity.
In this sense, the cultural heritage of the Mediterranean diet plays a vital role in rituals, festivals, celebrations, and cultural events, bringing together people of all ages and social classes.
It is a community life that also enhances handicrafts and local vocations, such as the production of containers for food storage and consumption, artistic manufactures of ceramic and glass dishes and glasses, and the art of embroidery and weaving.
For centuries women have played a key role in passing on the knowledge of the Mediterranean Diet.
They take care of family members and acquaintances by preparing both daily and festive food.
They pass on their culinary secrets to children and grandchildren, making festive banquets an authentic celebration of life.
