Top answer
HI, If someone likes eating food I wouldn't declare him as a "foodaholic". A foodaholic is rather someone who eats very much, hasn't a sporty figure, and prefers unhealthy food. But I don't know how common it is.

HI,

Foodie might be a suitable word for someone who prefers visiting nobel restaurants.But I don't know how common it is. Wait for a native speaker !:)
