In a word: "Tasty!" (my other answer is that it's a bullshit buzzword)
IMO, a gourmet is someone who seriously enjoys and gets pleasure from good food! That would be me!
Gourmet is sitting in Tuscany with a glass of wine and enjoying everything life has to offer!
Entry from @veggieventures
Gourmet foods: indulgent, luxurious experience for the senses; ingredients chosen w/originality & care, precisely prepared
I'll add "refined" and "thoughtful" to my answer even though I only get one entry.

To me, gourmet means that it has been specially prepared, to bring together many flavours to produce a unique one.
Entry from @HeatherLochner
Gourmet means delicious & not mac/cheese, hot dogs or oatmeal. I love food. Love cooking and await the day my kids do too.

Gourmet expresses the art of fine food/drink. A term used to describe food in a higher culture, design, quality and taste.
Entry from @TheDashBored
Gourmet is a food or drink that is distiguishable and unique. either to a region, or to the person who has prepared it.

The Gourmet Equation "Quality ingredients + a chef’s magic touch + presentation in an artful manner = bon appétit"
Entry from @Sarah_Han
gourmet to me is high quality food with an emphasis on presentation.
Entry from @J_MacIndoe
my "gourmet" is elaborate, fine, sophisticated and refined. That's why I love each visit to @TheBlakeHouse :)
For me gourmet means wanting to taste something really slowly, and if it's really gourmet, I only need to taste a very small amount to feel "satisfied".

Entry from @terencelo
"gourmet" means experiencing of top notch food and wine and the pleasures that come from it.
Entry from @WellPreserved
a gourmet is he who selects, for his nice and learned delectation, the most choice delicacies, prepared in the most scientific manner. who am I to argue - that was Brillat-Savarin :)
Entry from @lobakes
Gourmet:Thoughtfully produced savory dishes that entice you to voluntarily indulge your senses in the delectable experience.
Gourmet to me means high quality ingredients thoughtfully presented.
@ennsee
Entry from @katerodas
Gourmet is anything that I had to work to get and/or makes me feel special just for eating or cooking it. Not to be wasted.
Good question! I think gourmet food has to have an element of surprise, whether it's a new flavour profile, a special ingredient or a way of preparing the food to bring out certain flavours.
An epicurean attention to crafting fine food and drink.
Entry from @RosemaryValente
'gourmet' to me means food cooked with fresh ingredients,flavour, precision, passion and love. :-)
Gourmet means cooking with the freshest ingredients and love. @nataliecurrie
