Drinking Etiquette

France is known for its gastronomy and fine cuisine, which is one of its most celebrated cultural traditions. Roquefort and Camembert are only two examples of its superb cheeses. You are invited to experience Gallic gastronomy by its wide selection of breads, excellent herbs, tomatoes, sausages, and pork, as well as its unrivaled wine and the renowned and exquisite pate foie gras, a classic dish from the south of France.

It is common to have a baguette spread with fruit jam for breakfast along with a cup of coffee or hot cocoa. As the bread that now belongs to the world, croissants are also quite delicious as the first meal of the day. Going out and having a coffee or other beverage with family or friends is one of the customs and habits of the French. They like to linger over a hot beverage and a treat at a neighborhood establishment to talk or just relax.
