Ran into that very same problem in Germany. It took a good five minutes for our host to figure out our āfriesā was their āfritzā. And they werenāt Micky D.
Plan for a longer stay: When coming from the US the French might quarantine you at the border or even reject you completely. To keep āDonalds Deseaseā away from Europe.
Apologies to those who have read this before: Back in 1969 my family went on a European vacation/tour. At a restaurant in Munich, I ordered a hamburger with french fries, and the waitress smiled and said, āNo french fries ā we serve German Fries here!ā
At a little Irish pub in Ushuaia Argentina my favorite was āhamburguesa con queso y papas fritasā, cheeseburger with fries. I still feel the thrill I had when the waiter congratulated me on my pronunciation.
it should be quite clear from the past election and this one coming up, that depending on the government to save us is magical thinking. Too many leaders on both sides of the isle are leading us down paths I surely donāt want to go.
Erhā¦ You need to wait until the US is off the list of people forbidden to travel to France but you are very welcome. Just do not order steak tartare, it isnāt steak with sauce tartare but raw steak with raw egg and condiments (happened to a nice young American who was traumatised by it, even though I go the server to take it back and have it well done).
On a needlework online discussion group I am on there is a member who lives in France. First year on July 14th I wished her a ābon Bastille journeeā . She thanked me and then told me that they just call it (in French) July 14th not Bastille Day.

Thatās the kind of stuff us geezers think about. Thereās not much time left to do it. Argo might take her comment seriously.

I wonder how Gene, Mary Lou and Meg are doing in this pandemic. The restaurant was in trouble before but maybe Megās roadside stand is doing better?

I read somewhere that today is also international nude beach day; so glad these two are not celebrating that!

Glad to see Chef Arlo active again. He can make anything sound French cuisine!

Hope youāre not in a hurry. Americans are PNG in Europe at the moment.

Reminded of a line from the early 1970s meat shortage: āIs this for a rolled roast or a Rolls-Royce?ā
