Eating Out in Europe: Picnics, Gourmet Dining and Snacks since the Late Eighteenth Century

Europeans are eating out in unprecedented numbers-in cafés, pubs, brasseries, and restaurants. But what if we open up this concept of "eating out" to include any eating that takes place outside the home? What cultural shifts can we see through time? What does this tell us about pre-industrial, industrial, and post-industrial societies?

Eating Out in Europe addresses such questions as it examines changes in eating patterns. Case studies include the evolution of the pub, the rise of the fast food industry in Britain, picnicking in nineteenth-century France, snack culture in the Netherlands, industrial canteens in Germany, the rise of restaurants in Norway, and countryside traditions in Hungary. Fully comprehensive and illustrated, the contributors draw on examples throughout Europe from the late eighteenth century to the present day.

Lonely Planet Eastern Europe Phrasebook





Watch a divadlo among the theatre literati of the Czech Republic, wander through an Albanian shesh, or splash out on a plaza at the seaside resorts of Croatia! Whether you're dipping into history, exploring the arts scene, or simply enjoying the set, the 11 languages in this phrasebook will help you tune into the local lore...and more...

  • includes Albanian, Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Hungarian, Macedonian, Polish, Romanian, Serbian, Slovak and Slovene
  • details of national festivals, including the arts
  • clear pronunciation guides for each language
That high school French or Spanish isn't going to do you an iota of good in most of Eastern Europe. Bulgarian, Czech, Polish, and Slovak are all members of the Slavonic language family, while Hungarian is a unique European language with Finno-Ugric roots (which don't grow out). English is a good bet in many cities, and knowing some German helps in the Czech Republic, but nothing wins goodwill like an attempt in the native tongue, no matter how mangled your grammar and pronunciation. In Eastern Europe Phrasebook, Lonely Planet provides easy phrases for Eastern European travel necessities, such as "cabbage and potatoes," "excuse me" and "please," "I'd like a double room," and "How much does it cost?" With a healthy smattering of vocabulary and phrases, the book fits neatly in a back pocket to accompany you everywhere you go.
