Signature foods often have something to them that makes them strangely irresistible. As for seasons... I'm not particularly bothered by the cold, so winter is rather charming. In spring or summer, there's a lot more to do outdoors, and it's certainly easier to get around-- walking loses some of its appeal when you have to account for slush and ice. There's something about summer and autumn festivals that makes you feel connected to tradition... [ yes, he is apparently giving this very serious thought ] Autumn and winter are the best for stargazing, for meteor showers in particular. But it's more refreshing to see plants bloom in spring than hibernate in autumn, isn't it?

So I suppose my answer would be that there's a season for everything.
