Food, shopping & people
‘Cuisses de grenouilles’ = frogs legs. A tasty French stereotype that’s still alive and kicking.
‘A la Provencal’ essentially means tomatoes with an inordinate amount of garlic. Your taste buds will dance, but your breath will honk.
Wine, wonderful wine is everywhere: the winegrowing area around Bordeaux alone is over 1,000sqkm.
'c'est la fin des haricots' (the end of the beans) = the last straw
