Gastronomy Director Megan Elias Dishes on the Evolution of the Business Lunch
Dr. Megan Elias, associate professor of the practice and director of MET’s Gastronomy program, was quoted in an article appearing on NPR’s The Salt and Wisconsin Public Radio. Entitled “Working In While Eating Out: The Evolution of Doing Business While Dining,” the article examines how eating and working are entwined in our culture—and have been since ancient Sumer. According to Dr. Elias, “As long as there have been marketplaces, people have been eating at them while also doing business.”
