Well, good for you! No harm ment, though, I just thought it was interesting. Ironic.

I hardly figure out there's anything interesting in the fact that many meals in French cooking require 20+ minutes to prepare, and that when you're not at home and have only 30 minutes for lunch between 2 appointments, you go to a fast food restaurant because you have no other choice.

But if you want to make a generality out of anything, you might also consider that "all" French people are anti-American : that's why there are so many McDonald restaurants in France, and why they are always full at meal time.

But yes, I prefer French food. Personal taste.

Ye gods! People eat lunch at McD's? :eek:

I thought France was full of little bistros and whatnot where people can eat proper food instead of that junk what they serve at hamburger restauraunts :(

From this Dutchman to y'all: There's a-holes wherever you go, be it here, France, Germany, anywhere. Such is life.

Cheers Rody

PS oddest experience I had in France was on a campsite where the guy that looks after the terrain hated tourists. Wait a minute, perhaps it's time to review your career?????? Generally the french are very nice people (exception, see above) living in a very nice country.
