المطبخ


Explanation:
I agree with the answers provided above, but I think in this context it should be translated as المطبخ or مطبخها

Gastronomy can mean:

1. The art or science of good eating.
2. A style of cooking, as of a particular region.

I believe (as does Ahmed AMS), that the second meaning applies here.
بلد كان مطبخهامثار سخرية الجميع
Something like that.

ذوق معدتها - in this context


Explanation:
here's one more suggestion:

وبلدٌ كان ذوق معدته مثاراً للسخرية
وبلدٌ كان لمعدته شهيةٌ تدفع للتندُّر


فنون أو علوم الشهية - ذوق المعدة
