Get ready for some surprising facts about the origins of foods and culinary traditions! Did you know the world’s first restaurant is believed to have opened in Paris in 1765, offering “restorative broths” from which the term “restaurant” comes? In Japan, the art of kaiseki serves a series of small, beautifully arranged dishes that highlight seasonal ingredients. Cooking with fire is one of humanity’s oldest activities, estimated to be 1.8 million years old! Over in Ethiopia, coffee is traditionally served with a side of popcorn—a pairing that’s been enjoyed for centuries. The most expensive chocolate in the world, made by the La Madeleine O'Truff Company, costs around $250 per piece and is infused with rare truffles. And the ancient Mayans were the first to cultivate cocoa, creating a hot chocolate-like drink, though theirs was spiced and bitter—nothing like the sweet hot cocoa we enjoy today! • #foodfacts #culinaryhistory #chocolatelovers #restauranthistory #coffeelovers
