In Mexico, 'comer a gusto' often involves 'el recalentado' (leftovers) the day after a big party, eaten in pajamas with family. The Sunday 'Asado' is the ultimate 'comer a gusto' scenario. It's a ritual that lasts many hours. In rural areas, 'comer a gusto' is associated with 'comida de leña' (food cooked over wood), which is considered more satisfying and traditional.
