1。 Introduction 

International Culinary Tourism Association describes culinary tourism as “the pursuit of unique and memorable eating and drinking experiences” promoting all types of gastronomic adventures。 This kind of tourism has now become extremely popular because local cuisine is often believed to be one of the most motivating factors in choosing a tourist destination。

Culinary tourists want to be informed in advance about the culinary attributes of a region they are travelling to, and they carefully plan their trips on the basis of promotional material available in print and online media so they can experience local cuisine in full。 In other words, as tourists are increasingly beginning to absorb not only “the sights and sounds” of their travel destinations but also engage in various food-related activities, national tourist organizations and independent travel agencies should carefully design their tourist web sites and brochures in a highly persuasive way, so that they make a profound effect on prospective travelers, urging them to visit the places mentioned therein。论文网
