Abstract
This paper explores the phenomenon of storytelling within the context of fine dining as a rich and complex form of cultural expression. Fine dining transcends mere culinary experience; it serves as a narrative that links food, culture, and social experience. Utilizing a qualitative approach, the research collects data through interviews with gastronomic practitioners, including chefs, restaurant owners, and fine dining patrons across various locations. Analysis reveals that each dish presented carries a profound story, reflecting culinary traditions, local ingredients, and the influences of globalization. Storytelling in fine dining acts as an effective marketing tool while enhancing customer experiences by providing emotional and intellectual context to the food they enjoy. This research also highlights how visual elements and restaurant atmosphere contribute to the overall narrative, creating a multisensory experience that reminds visitors of the cultural values embedded in each dish. This paper asserts the importance of storytelling in fine dining as a means to preserve and celebrate cultural heritage, while building connections between restaurants and customers.

Abstract
Atherosclerotic disease significantly impacts patients with type 2 diabetes, who often present with recalcitrant peripheral ulcers. The angiosome model of the foot presents an opportunity to perform direct angiosome-targeted endovascular interventions to maximise both wound healing and limb salvage. A systematic review was performed, with 17 studies included in the final review. Below-the-knee endovascular interventions present significant technical challenges, with technical success depending on the length of lesion being treated and the number of angiosomes that require treatment. Wound healing was significantly improved with direct angiosome-targeted angioplasty, as was limb salvage, with a significant increase in survival without major amputation. Indirect angioplasty, where the intervention is applied to collateral vessels to the angiosomes, yielded similar results to direct angiosome-targeted angioplasty. Applying the angiosome model of the foot in direct angiosome-targeted angioplasty improves outcomes for patients with recalcitrant diabetic foot ulcers in terms of primary wound healing, mean time for complete wound healing and major amputation-free survival.
