    The thing about French fries seems to be a back-formation. The earliest recipe for French fried potatoes calls for the potatoes to be thinly sliced and fried on both sides, so it’s closer to a potato chip than what we nowadays call a French fry. Moreover, to french in cookery originally meant separating meat from the bone.

    French cuisine to me is cooking with butter, wine and heavy cream.

    Well now I want poutine. Just to reassert my French Canadian roots. Even if the fries are Belgian.

    I’ve only eaten in a real French restaurant once in my life (wait staff was French, menu was in French) I dont remember what I ordered but it had some kind of cream sauce on it and it was very rich but it was the most delicious thing I ever ate.
    One of those once in a life time experiences that can never be recreated.

    Interesting fact – Creme Brulee was invented by English University students in the 1800’s. It was quick, easy and cheap. Most importantly it couldn’t be smelt whilst cooking as cooking wasn’t allowed in their sleeping quarters. The crisp sugar topping was added by chefs to be upmarket to diners.
