Eat it in a certain way

An adverb in -게 in front of 먹다 says how the eating goes: 편의점에서 간단하게 먹을 거예요 'I'll just grab something simple at a convenience store', 아침을 좀 늦게 먹는데 'I eat breakfast a bit late.' The one to learn by heart is 맛있게 먹다, literally 'eat deliciously' but meaning to enjoy the food — 김치찌개도 맛있게 먹을 수 있을 거예요 'you'll enjoy kimchi stew too.' Its imperative, 맛있게 드세요, is what a host says as the food arrives.
