Synopsis

Cerita dari Piring: Memahami Makna Gastronomi mengajak pembaca menjelajahi dunia melalui kisah Raka, seorang anak yang mulai menyadari bahwa setiap makanan memiliki cerita panjang di balik kelezatannya. Berawal dari pertanyaan sederhana tentang asal-usul makanan di meja makan, Raka memulai petualangan yang membawanya mengenal hubungan erat antara makanan, sejarah, budaya, tradisi, lingkungan, dan kehidupan masyarakat. Dengan alur cerita yang ringan dan menarik, buku ini memperkenalkan konsep gastronomi sebagai cara memahami dunia melalui pengalaman kuliner.
Melalui perjalanan ke berbagai negara seperti Italia, Jepang, Singapura, Meksiko, hingga kembali ke Indonesia, pembaca diajak mengenal kekayaan warisan kuliner dunia beserta nilai-nilai yang terkandung di dalamnya. Setiap kisah tidak hanya menghadirkan pengalaman menikmati makanan khas, tetapi juga memperlihatkan peran petani, nelayan, pedagang, koki, serta masyarakat yang menjaga tradisi agar tetap hidup dari generasi ke generasi. Disertai penjelasan ilmiah yang dikemas secara sederhana, buku ini menjadi sarana edukatif untuk memahami wisata gastronomi, keberagaman budaya, dan pentingnya pelestarian warisan kuliner.
Buku ini sangat cocok dibaca oleh pelajar, mahasiswa, pendidik, maupun masyarakat umum yang ingin mengenal gastronomi dengan cara yang menyenangkan dan mudah dipahami. Cerita dari Piring: Memahami Makna Gastronomi tidak hanya mengajarkan pentingnya menghargai makanan, tetapi juga menumbuhkan kepedulian terhadap budaya, lingkungan, dan identitas bangsa. Pada akhirnya, pembaca akan menyadari bahwa setiap hidangan yang tersaji di atas piring bukan sekadar makanan, melainkan sebuah kisah tentang manusia, alam, dan peradaban yang layak untuk dipelajari dan diwariskan.
