REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE AND STUDIES

INTRODUCTION

This chapter begins with the research framework of the study, followed by the

discussion of multiple concepts that serve as the backbone of the study in conceptually,

theoretically and empirically way. Some prior research conducted on the concept and

the issues raised are also discussed in this chapter. Lastly, this chapter concludes the

discussion by proposing the relationships among the variables used in the research

framework.

Foreign Literature

Past research has empirically examined the importance of food quality in the

restaurant setting the due to food is the core product of a restaurant and plays a crucial

role in influencing customer satisfaction and determining the post- dining behavioral

intentions (Liu and Jang, 2009). A number of the food service providers claim that

people go to the restaurant for the food and they are satisfied if they get the food they

want (Andale and Conway, 2006). Thus, can be concluded that food is highly related to

customer satisfaction in the restaurants (Johns and Howard, 1998; Kivela et al.,1999).

Among the seminal studies are those conducted by Namkung and Jang (2007) who

identify food quality in terms of food presentation, taste and temperature leading to a

favorable customer satisfaction, Ha and Jang (2010) have evidenced a positive

relationship between food quality and customer satisfaction and between food quality

and customer satisfaction and between food quality and loyalty in Korean restaurants,
and Sulek and Hensley (2004), who evaluate the importance of food, physical setting

and service in a full-service restaurant, findings reveal that food quality is far more

important to costumer satisfaction and predicting behavioral intentions than other

variables.

Consistent with the previous studies, Qin and Prybutok (2009) have witnessed a

direct link between food quality and customer satisfaction in the FFRs in the United

States. Furthermore, the same findings have also been found in China FFRs (Qin,

Prybutok and Zhao, 2010). In sum, it can be concluded that high food quality often leads

to favorable customer satisfaction among the restaurant consumer across western and

eastern countries. Based on these theoretical foundation and empirical studies.

There has been a growing recognition that perceived value has impacts on

customer satisfaction and behavioral intentions. In an effort to further understand the

relationship between perceived value and customer satisfaction, service and marketing

researchers have begun to examine the relationship between perceived value and

customer satisfaction (Mcdougall and Levesque,2000; Lai et al., 2009).

Local Literature

Carenderia Industry Profile According to Business Diary Philippines (2008), a

carenderia is a local eatery selling and serving viands for the masses. It is also known

as “Turo-Turo” wherein customers literally point what they want to eat. As Spanish

Filipinologist Wenceslao Retana discovered in the 1920s, the origin of the carenderia

can be traced to the word” kari” which means “spice”, or what we know today as “curry”.
Most streets in the Philippines where schools and offices located with exception to

highly developed areas and private properties have carenderias surroundings them.the

carenderias the forerunner of the restaurant concept in the Philippines (Philippine Daily

Inquirer 2011).

History of Carenderia before 1764 there was no Filipino word to infer a

commercial establishment selling cooked food. But by the early 1800s, the carenderia

was recognized as the native food shop, are spite for travelers and a direct ancestor of

turo-turo. According to Felice Prudente-Sta. Maria, and notes that carenderia is most

likely derived from the word cari or kari, a Tamil word for sauce, or a saucy

accompaniment to rice. Some theories attribute this connection to the large number of

breakaway soldiers from the invading British army, mostly East Indian Bengalis or

Tamils, ended up setting in Taytay and Cainta, major tourist routes at the time.

Carenderias became widespread in rural areas only after increased human mobility,

around the late 1800’s. Sepoys were Indian natives who deserted British General

William Draper’s fleet around 1764. They quickly assimilated into the community by

marrying Filipina wives and settling at the lakeside end of the Pasig River about 18

kilometers east of Manila in Taytay and Cainta. Carenderias were affected by tourist

transportation. Like all busy crossroads, Taytay and Cainta reaped revenues from

tourist facilities, in this case eateries. Many tourists noted that the areas from Taytay

and Cainta through the capitol were punctuated by bamboo stalls offering a mixed menu

that included curry. The Spaniard Wenceslao E. Retana, an authority in Philippine

studies, traced the etymology of carenderia in the 1920s to curry that is kari in Tagalog

-the root word of the native dish called Kare- Kare. Relationship between cuisine to
Carenderia According to Tira Andrei (2010) in her study, Filipino cuisine is a contentious

subject within the Filipino community. Moreover, in an authoritative anthology of essays

and illustrations assembled by Filipino gourmets, scholar, historians, and professors,
