approximations

It would be interesting to provide approximations for how long the differing numbered courses typically occur. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.100.104.17 (talk • contribs) 13:04, 15 July 2008 (UTC) [reply]

Common saying?!

I nearly choked when I read this sentence.

"thus the common saying "from soup to nuts", meaning from beginning to end"

I have never once heard this saying in my life, was this a common saying in the 15th century or something?!

Neither have I.

I have. So has a web search. It's in a bunch of dictionaries. There are many uses in news sources. I think that, when describing a somewhat old-fashioned and obscure subject, it's usual to find old-fashioned expressions. It may not be strictly necessary, in context, for an encyclopedia article. 198.103.161.1 (talk) 19:39, 21 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have heard--and used--the phrase as a common expression, amongst people of all ages and on tv. Possibly there is a cultural/regional aspect. ~~

"saladé"?

Why is there an accent on the last letter of the word "saladé"? The only usage that I know is not about food but more about fooling people with words. 198.103.161.1 (talk) 19:39, 21 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Limited geography

The articles as-is is very much centered on the US~~/UK~~ dining habits, starting with the title. Multicourse meals in many cultures are not limited to dinner. The full-course menus are also very French-US-centric. In the European domain, the arguably most prolific multicourse eaters are Italians (see Italian meal structure), but there is no mention here of primi or secondi (although antipasti had made it). Should we globalize this text or create a Multicourse meal? Викидим (talk) 17:55, 6 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I tend to agree. And in the UK, lunch can in practice be multi-course, especially at weekends or if taken in a restaurant.Ponsonby100 (talk) 18:09, 6 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
