At one time our city had four French restaurants, claiming to be authentic, of course.
One dish I had, had a small evergreen branch you could eat.
Not once was I ever offered the "une salade" after the main course. Those Barbarians. ;-)

Now talk about heaping the fat, New Orleans is just a five-hour drive away. And everything has to have some pork product drizzled in.
