Question 19

Why the restaurants have got such a name?

Experts estimate that there are more than 8 million restaurants in the world today. So it might surprise you to learn that restaurants as we know them have only existed for a few centuries. Before 1765, there were no restaurants. That is, there were no places that provided the restaurant experience. There was nowhere in which a server brought you food and drink that you picked off of a menu. In fact, there were no menus anywhere!

There were places travelers could eat centuries before that. The countryside was full of inns that would serve food, and there were taverns where one could get a drink. The wealthy could also eat personally catered meals supplied by private chefs. But there was nothing that could be called a “restaurant.”

Legend has it that a soup salesman named Boulanger changed that. In 1765, he opened a place in Paris that sold soups. On his sign, he used the term “restaurants” to describe what he was selling. Because soups were considered “restorative,” he called his business a “restaurant.” Eventually, people started buying Boulanger’s soups even when they were not ill. And over time, people began to use the term “restaurant” to refer to the place soup was sold rather than the soup itself. More “restaurants” opened up in France, and people began to purchase soups more regularly.

Then, restaurants in Paris began to serve food other than soups. In the 1780s, menus started to appear. By the 1800s, there were many types of restaurants. The United States offered coffee shops and oyster houses. Paris began creating elegant restaurants for the rich. The British began to copy the French, and the restaurant concept was spread throughout the British Empire.
