Project: Each student should create a new instagram account for this project. The account should be open to public. No private accounts. It would be like a foodie instagram account. Once you open the account you need to send me with your instagram account, name and last name and student number.
For the Project, you are going to go and try a restaurant (preferably a cuisine that you have never tried before) Then you are going to post photos of the food you try at the restaurant, the decoration of the restaurant, the menu and yourself on the table. Under each post you are going to write the name of the dishes and how you like it. Also make comment of the decoration, the ambiance, and your experience and etc… How was the taste? Why did you like it? Are you going to go to this restaurant again and etc… You will use the hashtag #baufoodculture2019
You are free to post any other gastronomic experiences on your instagram account. Also follow @tadindaseyahat account where I can follow up your post.
The restaurant you will try is going to be a cuisine that you have never tried before. No Italian, no Turkish, no American cuisines. Thai, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Chinese, Indian, Peruvian, Lebanese, African, Mexican cuisines are perfect alternatives.
