A French restaurant is where they consider ketchup a dangerous food additive.

I would have choked if La Madelaine would have won. I'm amazed they rank
above those others.

I have a question that has nothing to do with any of this. Do you also eat french fries with salt and vinegar in America? The Swiss don't! What a nightmare!

Only with fried fish, where malt vinegar is essential. Up east, however, salt and vinegar on french fries, and even on potato chips, is popular.

I see. Crazy that people DON'T eat it with vinegar in some places.

Ranch dressing is very popular here, not only on french fries, but also on Buffalo Wings and raw vegetables.

I prefer Kraft tartar sauce,
blue cheese dressing, or cream gravy
on my french fries...

Yes, but what is ranch dressing and Buffalo wings? What are they made of?

Buffalo wings, are chicken wings, deep fried and coated with hot sauce, The practice originated at a bar in Buffalo, NY, hence the name. Ranch dressing is a creamy salad dressing with just a little tartness to it. the combination is very good.

A little tartness?? Ranch dressing might be called Slut Sauce!

I'll pass that along to the marketing folks. Tart means something somewhat different over here. It means just a little sour.

How boring - see, that's why one doesn't know about it. I mean, if you saw two types of sauce on a super market shelf, the called 'Sour Sauce', the other 'Slut Sauce' - which one would you buy? That's my point.

Good point. I'd buy the Slut Sauce, just for the fun of it. But most people shopping for food are women. Which is a woman likely to buy?

ha-ha! I sure would? I'd want to be able to recognize the smell of Slut Sauce around my husband! But I suppose not all women are jealous...

Whether they admit it or not, most women are jealous to some degree. As long as
you don't take it too far, it's not too bad. Just remember the only thing jealousy can do is hurt you. I am not jealous at all. But it took me years to get this way.

And how did you manage it? I sure wouldn't want to hurt anyone with jealousy.

The only way I would ever become absolutely not jealous would be to achieve room temperature and become worm food. But seriously folks:
Georges Bouillion, a world-class French chef living in Honolulu, has just opened a French cooking institute here. If you would like to study French cooking in Hawaii, details are available 1 (808) 528-5627. When the students become advanced enough, Bouillion intends to open a relatively low cost French bistro run by his students. Stay tuned!
