I like French food a lot but they can get unbelievably serious about it.
As described inhttp://tinyurl.com/3bc8hk, the French leader (M.
Sarkozy) wants la cuisine française to be listed by Unesco, the UN
agency, as part of the world's cultural heritage. On the other hand, it
may just be a typical political ploy :-)
Heh. I saw this somewhere too... I dunno about 'political ploys' but
I've always had the impression that the French think their cooking is
'magnific' <rolls eyes>. I've never found it all that marvelous, but
that's just me...

I've never had that much use for it, either. In that thread
discussing
Ming Tsai and master sauces, Sqwertz said something about
duck confit. I shrugged.

That might be a topic for a survey: What do you think of French food?

Good idea... thanks.
