Based on this problematic, 147 papers from 20 journals were collected through two ways: Spell database and the search system of the official sites of the journals. Bibliometrix was the software used for the data treatment. The main results were: a) main periodicals: Rosa dos Ventos - Turismo e Hospitalidade and Revista Hospitalidade; b) most prolific authors: Maria Henriqueta Gimenes-Minasse and Rodolfo Krause; c) 87% of the sample authors published only one paper; d) main references: Schlüter (2003), Gândara (2009), Gabriela Fagliari (2005); e) referential authors: Maria Henriqueta Gimenes-Minasse, Ministry of Tourism and Regina Schlüter; f) prolific institutions: Universidade Anhembi Morumbi and Universidade do Vale do Itajaí; g) five thematic clusters were identified in the sample. This research contributes to the social and intellectual characterization of the scientific production on Gastronomy in Brazil present in the journals of T&H.
