This article examines the characteristics of great hospitality using the memory of an old man reflecting on his life. The outstanding bouts of hospitality all occurred during World War II in Southeast Asia under extreme circumstances, something that may illuminate understanding better than under normal times. While a safe place to sleep was always involved, the key ingredient in making the hospitality memorable was the meal. The food was special but the generosity of the hosts was the most conspicuous element. Implications for commercial hospitality are discussed.
