History of

Appetizers

1

It is an organizational design that is highly

formalized, centralized and complex.

• Appetizers were originally introduced by the Athenians

• Aperitifs came about by the Romans and were classified as a liquid appetizer that typically contained alcohol. The purpose for aperitifs were also meant to help with the imminent digestion process.

For a time, appetizers would be served between the main course and dessert as a refresher, but by the twentieth century they had taken their place as a precursor to the main course.
