Oh so that's how you make a vinaigrette.
How about some boars head boiled ham?
Definitely not a master french chef lol, that cut was diabolical, salad is a slop
Sacre Bleu
Nah, sorry but it doesn't compete with kraft singles on white bread grilled to perfection
Must be nice but sometimes I think how are french people still alive, ahahahah, a heart attack on a plate.

Looks so perfect!
I made a french onion and cheese toasted sandwich the other day and it was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had
Looks like a Monte Cristo to me.
She's fantastic. Let her do more videos!
too much nutmeg in the school lunches. We definitely went to different schools.
Pure heart attack and RIP
This Croque Monsieur looks absolutely perfect! I love watching classic French dishes made with such precision.
She looks like of the Gordon Ramsay's daughter.
She could be reading the phone book.. I'd be just as enthralled.
