It is said that French food is the best food in the world, and French wine, likewise. Well, they would say that, wouldn't they? And for a very long time it has been true.
Today, however, things are changing, and while French food and drink remains among the best you’ll get anywhere – in 2016, 42 restaurants received their first Michelin star – it now has many rivals.
But don’t let that deter you. Come to France, indulge a little, maybe a little too much sometimes. See how the French like to dine, what they eat, what they drink. One thing is certain: whatever the rest of the world may be doing, the French are still ploughing their own particular furrows.
