Yeah, isn't french cuisine really also really influenced by its neighbors?
France was just borrowing a cup of sugar.
The same is true in America. You think Chicago invented soul food? The best thing about it over here, though, is that you can get the authentic stuff from all the different immigrant villages. It's a world wind of deliciousness without having to board a plane.

This is one of the many things I love about Seattle.
French, Italian, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Ethiopian, Russian, Turkish, etc etc all on a single freaking block.
I really should patronize the French place my cousin's cousin works at.
I refuse to eat anything with veal or foi gras in it, so I guess French cuisine is out.
Not sure about the veal, but foi gras is hardly in anything. You'd basically have to ask for it. And honestly it isn't all that its made out to be. I mean, it's pretty tasty but not something I'd put up a fight to keep on the menu. Particularly given how it is wrought.

than I'm not sure I'm prepared to give you authority on this particular argument.
Don't get me wrong: I am not saying that the Italians have anything at all to be ashamed of in the food department. It's just that the French spank them like a red-headed stepchild.
And really, that's still nothing to be ashamed of; the French spank everyone in the world like a red-headed stepchild when it comes to food. The fact that it could even be considered a competition is a tremendous badge of honor to the Italians. England wouldn't even be let in the building to watch the competition.

Because that's the entirety of the reason I'm reading about the subject now.
