Abstract

La presente investigación tiene como objetivo analizar la influencia del emplatado en la experiencia del comensal en la gastronómica, destacando su papel en la percepción visual que los comensales tienen del emplatado. Investigaciones previas han evidenciado que un emplatado estético puede aumentar la disposición a pagar por un platillo. En un contexto de alta competencia en la industria gastronómica, el estudio busca profundizar en la relación entre la percepción visual y la experiencia culinaria, a través de una encuesta que busca identificar cómo los comensales perciben un emplatado de tilapia frita, donde se demostró que los atributos de la estética del emplatado impactan en la decisión de compra, generando sensaciones de anticipación o desagrado según su presentación, siendo el grupo de las mujeres quienes fueron más selectivas al momento de evaluar el emplatado.

    The present research aims to analyze the influence of plating on the diner's experience in gastronomy, highlighting its role in the visual perception that diners have of the plated dish. Previous research has shown that an aesthetic plating can increase the willingness to pay for a dish. In a context of high competition in the gastronomic industry, the study seeks to delve into the relationship between visual perception and culinary experience, through a survey that seeks to identify how diners perceive a fried tilapia plating, where it was shown that the attributes of the plating aesthetics impact the purchase decision.  Generating sensations of anticipation or displeasure depending on its presentation, with women being the group that demonstrated greater selectivity when evaluating the plating.
