The Pavilions Food of Love …
ARTICHOKES :Artichokes have been already known for 5 thousand years and were widely cultivated in Rome, Egypt and
Ancient Greece. The ancient Greeks and Romans considered artichoke as a delicacy and a strong aphrodisiac. It was
forbidden for French women to eat artichoke because of its “erotic” reputation.
ASPARAGUS :An English herbalist from the 17th century, Nicholas Culpepper, wrote that asparagus "stirs up lust in man
and woman, asparagus is a great source of folic acid which is said to boost histamine production necessary for the ability
to reach orgasm in both sexes.
AVOCADO :The Aztecs called the avocado ahuacuatl, or "testicle tree." They thought the fruit hanging in pairs on the
tree resembled testicles. The Catholic priests in Spain found this fruit so obscenely sexual that they forbade it.
BLUEBERRIES:Known for centuries in Asia, blueberries are called “happy berries” in China, where there aphrodisiac
powers are held in high regard. In Chinese medicine, blueberries are administered to strengthen the adrenal system,
believed to be a center of sexual energy. The fruit’s aphrodisiac status even found its way into an ancient Chinese proverb
warning men who travel away from their families: “He who travels one thousand kilometers from home should not eat
happy berries”
CAVIAR :Caviar has been revered as an aphrodisiac for centuries most people were led to believe that it can nourish and
enhance nerve cells, hence an extremely heightened romantic instincts – when Catherine the Great of Russia was urged
to provide an heir to the throne she replied "Bring me some caviar, and tonight at supper, send me the best built of my
officers.".
CHAMPAGNE :Champagne is considered to be one of the world’s most potent aphrodisiacs
The delicate bubbles reach the blood stream more rapidly than still wine. Therefore, most people tend to feel it’s
euphoric effects more quickly. Champagne was known to be Marilyn Monroe’s favorite drink…
CHERRY :These delectable fruits are said to arouse desire, and thought to be a strong aphrodisiac for women in
particular. it seems that for the men the perfect partner should have "lips like cherries…."
CHOCOLATE :the king of natural aphrodisiacs, containsthe psychoactive feel-good chemical, and PEA
(phenylethylamine), the "love chemical," which releases dopamine in the pleasure centers of the brain and peaks during
orgasm.
FIGS :This sexy fruit has long been thought of as an arousing stimulant, They are mentioned in the Bible (Adam and Eve
wore fig leaves to cover their private parts), are reported to be Cleopatra’s favorite fruit, and the ancient Greeks held
them as sacred and associated them with love and fertility.
GARLIC :A mouthful of fresh garlic might not sound like the best start to a romantic evening, but garlic has long had a
reputation as an aphrodisiac. This is connected with its classification as “hot” herb Tibetan monks were forbidden from
entering the monastries if they had eaten garlic. This is presumably because of its reputation for inflaming the passions.
GINGER : French legend has it that Madame du Barry, who was an official royal mistress to King Louis XV from 1769 until
his death in 1774, served ginger to all her lovers, including ‘the beloved’ king. The legend goes that this practice would
drive her men to a state of complete and utter submissiveness.

SALMON :Like most seafood, salmon enjoys a rich history as a natural aphrodisiac. But it is only in recent times that
we’ve pinpointed salmon fish as a sexual powerhouse. An excellent source of protein salmon is also loaded with omega
3′s, proven to elevate serotonin levels in the brain and thereby enhance mood. Vitamin rich, this fish has got a great dose
of A, D, B and calcium, all known to be necessary for giving the all-important libido lift.

since the times of ancient Rome. The strawbery was a symbol of Venus, the Roman goddess of love, beauty and fertily
