Here's a list of things I ate in France that I had never had before.
- Pork Terrine - I didn't order this, but the waiter brought it to me anyway. I ate it because it was easier than trying to explain it to a French guy. It kind of looked like canned cat food.
- Pain au chocolate - the French sure now how to cook pastries.
- Coq au vin - apparently this is an old rooster cooked in wine broth. It was really good.
- Beef jaw - I ate this at one of our nicest meals in a small restaurant in Saignon. I knew it was beef, but didn't know exactly what it was until Sadie told me. Of course, she knew what I was eating all along.
- Duck - this was served in a sort of pastry and was probably the best thing I ate.
- A pizza with an egg on it.
- Crepes - I had a couple with Nutella and one sucre citron crepe. And no, they're not little bitty pancakes.
- Nougat - "Nu-gah" - our hotel had a basket of these little candies in the lobby along with jars of marshmallows and gummy candies.
- Club Sandwich
- Pomme frites - "real" French fries. mmmmmm!
