Many residents of Overstrand Hermanus hoped that food tourism would increase after the city was chosen as a City of Gastronomy in 2019. However, as researcher Eerang Park and colleagues argue, cities must still create effective marketing strategies to benefit fully from being named a City of Gastronomy. Without an intentional effort to promote the city's food scene, many current and potential visitors to Overstrand Hermanus may not even be aware that it's home to uniquely delicious food.
