Abstract
This research examines the relationship between food experience and Elderly Chinese Immigrants (ECIs)' cultural transition in Australia. Field studies investigated ECIs' cultural experience of food, and how they react to the cultural differences in food-related activities. Results indicate that food experience mediates ECIs' cultural transitions between ECIs' home country cultural background and their host country context. Such findings lead to the development of the Food Experience Mediated Adaptation Framework, which illustrates ECIs' cultural transition and can be used as a guide for future design practices. This research, therefore, contributes to knowledge in the experience design field.
