9.Is It OK to Snap (拍照) Your Food?
Have you ever taken a snap of a luxurious cake or photographed a juicy steak when you eat in restaurants?You may want to share what you eat with your friends or just post part of your daily life onto the Internet.However,such action may be very annoying(討厭的) to other diners,or even to chefs and restaurant owners.Currently,more and more people begin to consider"foodstagramming"as very silly and a bad manner.
In many restaurants,diners complain of being blinded by flasher(閃光燈),snapped without their permission and disturbed by people climbing on to chairs for a better angle.Even chefs and restaurant owners are annoyed at food photography.A Michelin-starred(米其林星級) chef said,"It's hard to build a memorable evening when flashes are flying every six minutes."
At the start of 2013,the debate on whether it is OK to take photographs of your food in restaurants seemed to swing (搖擺) towards a definite"no."According to several chefs in New York City,some restaurants there have started banning customers from taking photos of their food.Policies around the ban of food photography vary from restaurant to restaurant,ranging from restrictions on using a flash to outright(完全的) bans.If other restaurants follow such policies,it may signal the death of"foodstagramming".
Nevertheless,instead of banning food photography,some restaurants are offering food photography courses.In Spain,the restaurant group Grupo Gourmet has started running a"Fotografia para foodies"course to instruct its customers to better take food pictures.The course teaches customers to take photos in a proper way without disturbing other dinners,such as never use a flash.
