Expatriate, not ex-patriot
It's not an excuse, it's an explanation
Seems like a friendly waiter to me
What you don't get is that food IS sacred in France.
In France "café = espresso", black coffee or Americano is "café long" or "café allongé"
If you dine at michelin's starred restaurant maybe. Everywhere else there's salt & pepper, and quite often mustard & vinaigrette
To eat some good fucking food?
Damn I got I all wrong I though it was praising the French's :/
Or just go to a restaurant that have on their menu your preferences?
And most of our terroir is about animal product. Vegetarians and vegans might feel out of place in French cuisine
Food we'd like to eat, how to cook, season... 2/3 of my conversations with my coworkers are about it. Same at family gathering
It isn't snobbism, you don't realize how food is a major part our culture. We love food, eating food, talking about food : food we've eaten
If you have allergy you just pick another item IN THE Menu
French here, always had a little taste of red wine and champagne at family gathering since I was 10 years old
