Etymology
Epicurean comes from the Greek thinker Epicurus, whose name became linked with 'pleasure' and fine living. So calling something epicurean means it is about luxury, comfort, or the enjoyment of very good food. You can also see the same root in the word epicure, which means someone who likes good food.
