appetizingly

/ˈæpəˌtaɪzɪŋli/ adv

In an appetizing manner.

Word Origin From Latin appetitus 'desire, striving after' — appetizingly means 'in a way that stirs desire.' The root pet- 'to seek, strive' is everywhere: competition (seeking together), impetuous (rushing forward), repetition (seeking again), and centripetal (seeking the center). So an appetizing dish is one that makes you strive toward it.

adv In an appetizing manner.
