The phrase Bon viveur is a pseudo-French phrase adopted in English in the mid 19th century, modelled on the French bon vivant "one who lives well", i.e. referring to a person who enjoys the good things of life. * The phrase is not derogatory but conveys a sense of overindulgence. In his book, Mind the Gaffe, professor Larry Trask opined that the phrase is pretentious.The type was exemplified by Johnnie Cradock who, with his wife Fanny, wrote a restaurant review column in the Daily Telegraph using Bon viveur as a nom de plume.
