🍷 French Dining Etiquette: A Cultural Adventure 🇫🇷
One of our first meals in France was a lesson in cultural differences! Picture this: a cosy French bistro, delicious food, and… an awkward moment when we reached for the breadbasket before the main course arrived. 😳
In France, bread isn’t just a pre-meal snack—it’s meant to accompany the meal itself. And don’t even think about putting it on your plate! The proper place for bread? On the table next to your plate.
Oh, and let’s not forget the mysterious pace of the meal. Courses come out slowly, encouraging conversation and savoring every bite. By the time dessert arrived, we’d finally stopped glancing at the clock!
