i stopped at some services in france once, and they had this huge cooked ham with dijon sauce which they just cut asmany slices off as you wanted, served up with choice of veg and a lovely potato gratin - got the impression that the chef got up at 4, went to the local (EU subsidised) market, bought the produce he fancied having a go at that day, cooked it up and just charged 6 quid for it. bloody lovely, although the french wouldn't expect anything less, and if you tried it over here people wouldn't buy it unless it was wrapped in pastry and served with oven chips.
Were you wearing a German SS Uniform...? Surprised they didnt massage your back whilst you were eating!
French food overrated......especially by the French except for bread and pastries....i'll concede on that!
