Going to a restaurant is a cultural activity???

  That depends on which restaurant you go to. ;) I often see a cute nerd typing magic code on his macbook dreaming of a billion dollar SaaS business in Starbucks.

  I’d say so, yes. Food is art and art is culture

    I don’t think there’s a rule that says good must always be art. A Philly cheesesteak sandwich isn’t art, at least the ones I’ve seen.

  Nowadays? Definitely. People don't go to eat out "just not to be hungry", they go for the experience.

    <rant> Honestly this is such a weird growing expectation. I don't think it's what people want anymore (they did previously) but companies are riling this up, they are making people expect more and care about trivial things to justify their existence and increased pricing. There's simply no single day I don't get by without seeing, care about the experience, it's all about the experience, it's all about how your literal USB cable makes someone feel about themself, etc in startup eco chambers. <rant/>
