Do you know what these fancy food terms mean?
You are playing as a guest. Sign in to save your progress & unlock rewards!For people who are used to eating fast food or home-cooked food, dining at a fancy restaurant may be a daunting experience. This is especially so if they go to a fine-dining restaurant, where multiple uncommon terms are used on the menu. Some even include words from languages you may not understand.
Let's start with a simple term: à la carte. This means ordering something as a separate item rather than as part of a set meal. If you want to order something artisan but you're not too sure what that means, just know that it was specially crafted and not mass produced. If you want pasta with some texture, order it al dente. That's when it is cooked to be firm to the bite.
In this quiz, you get to find out if you're a food snob in hiding! All you have to do is to identify the actual meaning behind the following words used in the culinary industry. How well do you think you can do?

Congratulations on scoring full marks on this quiz. You’re not just a food snob, you’re a food god! You really know everything there is to know, especially about fine dining and food of higher quality.
11/15 Quite good, certainly not a food snob or a fancy food eater always find the posh stuff not worth the money small fancy plates not much to fill you up and a bit of this and that can’t taste it or even know I’ve eaten it too much too much explaining and biggin it upbut notmuch in reality arty farty I call it more like a picture on a plate than somat you can eat to fill you up. But I am a Yorkshire lass born and bred ike well cooked healthy traditional meals that fill you up especially in the winter.
13/15 Good 86% Just realised done this before, much better score this time, but really wasted my time. finding it difficult to find a quiz that I have not done that scores points.
I got 6 out of 15 – 40%
You’re not even close to being a food snob, because you couldn’t pass this quiz! You appreciate speed and value more than quality, so a good ol’ burger meal would make you happy.
