    This is a great video. You should put a condensed version on your website. People really like things visually explained.

      This is an awesome video! I speak/understand French on an A2/B1 level but am intimidated when it comes to eating out in France. I am going to bookmark this video to watch it a few more times. I will be going to Bordeaux and Toulouse in September and this video will come in handy when eating out!

    Ah, some delicious memories of very chic dinners out with my late in laws and hubby - years ago (oh, this was circa 1969!), my father in law would take us out for dinner at really top hotel restaurants, as family restaurants were not yet a thing down here in South Africa. Oh, we had divine entrees, mains and desserts, all presented by smart black-tied waiters, starched linen serviettes, and good wine..... you made me drool, Arielle! Thanks for the memories!!!!

    Thanks for the video. Perfect for showing my middle schoolers. Just a note that in French, "amateurs" in the context in which you mention it probably means "lovers of" not "amateurs".

    This was very helpful! My favorite dessert on our last visit was île flottante! Also love Crème brûlée, a classic. We also tried a few cafe' gourmand, which was fun.

    WOW! Great information! Sure wish I would have know this info before we went to Paris in 2022! We only had a couple of meals that were not traditional French dishes and those were at our hotel restaurant (American chain - type time share apartment)

    This is a great idea. We are from Toronto as well! Going to Paris June 15th.
    A few questions; will most waiters speak English in restaurants?
    After looking at many menus, Paris menus are meat and potato heavy. Do you have a suggestion for a restaurant that has more veg with the entrees?
    Also, would love to try a great quiche, do you have a suggestion?
    Thanks so much! You are a natural at this!

    Thanks for the education. I find French cuisine delicious but a bit on the heavy side. As far as desserts go, if I see baba au rhum on the menu, I'm all in.😀

    This was very helpful but as a vegetarian, there was nothing even close that I would eat on that menu except the cheese plate and other desserts. Are there other French style restaurants beside this Bistro type menu?

    • @hilltopfamily
      @hilltopfamily Před 26 dny

      curious about that, as well! SOOO much meat! wow. I've been researching Vegan/Vegetarian places for our upcoming trip but always looking for more places to add to our growing list
      .

    I should have known better than to watch this before breakfast.
