    Fine dining with the package service: master chefs’ perspectives
    (Routledge, 2024) Cavus, Osman; Tiwari, Sunil; Sthapit, Erose; Cifci, Ibrahim
    This study explores the adequacy of package service in fine dining restaurants. Using a qualitative research approach, data were gathered using semi-structured interviews with 21 fine dining restaurant master chefs working in Istanbul, Türkiye. Based on grounded theory research design, this study identified six main themes linked to the suitability of package service in fine dining restaurants: challenges, specialization, value co-creation, anti-pollution, food-quality, and readiness. This study contributes to the existing literature on fine dining restaurants and package service by identifying six themes as core components of food package service in the context of fine dining. Some of the main managerial implications for converting fine dining restaurants into package service include catering to a limited set of package services initially to assess the feasibility, service quality, challenges, and customer satisfaction, including designing the package services following the customers’ requirements without compromising the core attributes and quality. © 2024 Taylor & Francis.

    Modeling self-identification, memorable tourism experience, overall satisfaction and destination loyalty: empirical evidence from small island destinations
    (Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2023) Kahraman, Onur Cuneyt; Cifci, Ibrahim
    Purpose Although many studies addressed destination marketing concepts, the relationship between self-identification, memorable tourism experiences, overall satisfaction, and destination loyalty in small island destinations remains unknown. To address this issue, the authors established a model based on social identity theory to investigate the effects of self-identification on overall satisfaction and loyalty, taking into account the mediating role of memorable tourism experiences.Design/methodology/approach Drawing on 335 useable questionnaires from the visitors of Princes' Islands in Turkey, a quantitative study approach was administrated to empirically analyze a partial least squares path model in PLS-SEM.Findings The findings revealed that self-identification positively affects memorable tourism experiences, overall satisfaction, and destination loyalty. The findings also confirm the indirect effects of self-identification on overall satisfaction and destination loyalty through mediating the role of memorable tourism experiences.Research limitations/implications The findings of the study will be useful both theoretically and practically. Theoretically, this research will be important to determine tourist behavior through the viewpoint of self-identification in the context of a small island destination. Practically, the findings of this study will assist small island destinations' policymakers and practitioners to develop strategies and make effective future actions.Originality/value This is the first study that uses a complete structural model linking self-identification, memorable tourism experiences, overall satisfaction, and destination loyalty.

    Stove to startup: residents' entrepreneurial motives in meal-sharing economy
    (Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2024) Tiwari, Sunil; Cifci, Ibrahim; Kahraman, Onur Cuneyt
    This study measures the nexus between entrepreneurial motives and residents' support for the meal-sharing economy with the mediating role of the state of the local economy. The authors employ partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) on the sample of 226 Indian respondents collected through a self-administered questionnaire. Results showed that the state of the local economy, social influence, gratification of hosting, and source of cultural capital are positively affecting the meal-sharing economy. Furthermore, the state of the local economy is positively associated with social influence and independency motives, significantly mediating the nexus of the meal-sharing economy with social influence and independency. Empirical findings suggest several theoretical and practical implications for residents, governments, policymakers, and tourism planners.
