Contexto cultural
Complimenting food is a way to show respect for the 'Son-mat' (hand-taste) of the cook. It's often expected that you say it multiple times during a meal. Fans often use this phrase in comments on social media when their favorite idols post food photos, showing they know polite Korean. In the past, the eldest person would speak first about the food. Today, it's polite for anyone to offer a compliment to the host. Mukbang creators use more exaggerated versions, but '참 맛있네요' remains the standard for polite, genuine reviews.
The 'Neyo' Nod
When you say '참 맛있네요', give a small nod. It reinforces the 'discovery' aspect of the grammar.
Don't overdo the 'Cham'
If you say it for every single bite of every single dish, it might start to sound insincere. Mix it up with other adjectives.
