How wines are paired with dishes, how the table is dressed, the precise placing of glasses for water and wine, knife blade pointing in, fork curved towards the dish, all time-honoured rituals.

One jury member said there was no major reason why France should be rejected, not even president Sarkozy's untimely assertion that when it comes to cooking, the French are the best in the world, a statement that enraged the Italians and Spaniards with whom Greece and Mexico are bidding jointly for the honour ofMediterranean diet.
