The spatial distribution of sustainable gastronomy: a case study of tourism in Prague

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Overconsumption of meat produces a large share of emissions and contributes, therefore, to climate change. Consumption of food related to tourism is conditioned by what food service establishments offer and spatially determined by the limited area of a particular destination. The aim of this case study is, first, to investigate the city-wide spatial distribution of common restaurants and vegan and vegetarian restaurants (which in general contribute to sustainable food consumption), with reference to popular tourist attractions. Second, the research focuses on quantity of meatless dishes and the way they are presented on menus in order to investigate whether food service establishments nudge customers to select meat-based dishes. For the first objective, quadrat and network analyses were used to explore the spatial location of the investigated types of restaurants. For the second one, a comprehensive examination of menus of 21 restaurants at the Old Town Square, which is the most overcrowded place in Prague, was conducted. The findings suggest that vegan and vegetarian restaurants are not exposed to the tourist market as their distribution is rather dispersed, beyond the borders of the UNESCO area. Furthermore, the researched restaurants offered primarily meat-based dishes and also nudge their customers to select them.
