    I'm happy you mentioned the bag-in-box wine. Boxed wind is frowned upon by snobs but when buying from a local co-op years ago the winemaker suggested to but some bagged wine for easy drinking. Especially suites for light wiens that don't age.

    I would also suggest to try the 'tranche du boucher' (butcher's slice) in a local bistro. It's a slice of meat that is sold a bit cheaper. Have it with a bit of bread and a green salad.

    My American friend taught I was crazy when i ordered the hand cut steak tartare once. Finely chopped seasoned meat. Extra points if you have it with a raw quail egg yolk. Heavenly.

      For me it's Indian food, but then... what else? Ugh... what a question.

      Bah. My mind is a whirling blank right here. I mean, freshly-prepared tiradito right off the boat is like... ffff, like tasting heaven.

      I mean, I've never had *truly* fresh, truly authentic sushi, but I imagine it would be like tiradito? (note: it's a form of ceviche, i.e. latino lime-cooked fish slices)

          Doubts about the second part.
          The ghee is used abundantly, they fry a lot and if not there's always a tadka to poor over it.
          Depends OC on what region or religion.
          Silly to lump everything into 'Indian' as it's huge and has many cuisines.

          Yeah I should have mentioned I meant in comparison to my local cuisine which includes a lot of red meat, dairy and alcohol like wine, I'm surprised we don't have more cases of gout here lol, thank you for the feedback

              French food is complicated to make compared to other European countries and looks very fancy but it really isn't better than Italian, German, Spanish, or indeed British food. Don't get me wrong, I still make the odd quiche, crème brûlée, or sole meunière, but it's just to change things up when I get bored of making my usual repertoire of dishes. It's nice but more labour intensive for what it is. OP didn't say you'd be getting it from a restaurant every day. Your probably going to be making things from scratch a lot. Do you even own a blowtorch for caramelising deserts or a water bath for sous vide?

                Italian and Mexican. That covers about 50% of my diet already.

                  Thai and Iranian. That'd cover a large spectrum of what I like.

                        IMO nothing beats a good French onion soup with a cheesy bread.
                        And if you didn't mention the patisserie, that would mean you haven't got a sweet tooth.
                        It's definitely one of the specialties.
                        I'm sure my GF will try that tomorrow when she goes to expensive Paris.

                        Yeah, onion soup is up there, too. Fish soup as well imo. There’s just too much good stuff 😅 good for your GF, I bet she’s in for some (expensive) treats 😁

                              If Indian qualifies as one single cuisine - then Indian. I'll have enough dishes to try out in my lifetime and that's after considering I am vegetarian.

                                  Like my in-laws.... Hmmm here's a great new hummus and salad! Yeah we sprinkled chicken, pork, beef, and shrimp powder and other meat products. It doesn't change the flavor, we just like gout so much.

                                  Perfectly good meal + smear some dead animal on it.

                                      They're scared AF from raw eggs.
                                      I know they only eat them if they're pasteurised at least.
                                      Read about it once, they have different standards and practices.
                                      Same for the meat, totally fine in Europe if all rules are followed.

                                          Like my in-laws.... Hmmm here's a great new hummus and salad! Yeah we sprinkled chicken, pork, beef, and shrimp powder and other meat products. It doesn't change the flavor, we just like gout so much.

                                          Perfectly good meal + smear some dead animal on it.

                                          I'm with you folks, on the whole. A well-prepared, complete-protein vegetarian meal rocks, especially with lots of complimentary seasoning.

                                          Does gout come from consuming animal products? Hmm, I hadn't heard that, before.

                                          Take the meat parts out and I'll eat almost anything.

                                          Stuff like cabbage (and Brassica sp.) are best cooked, because otherwise they can be goitrogenic, interfering with the thyroid gland's function over time. There's also the (admittedly slim) chance that some animal has passingly added something undesirable to a veggie, be it parasite or disease-causing.

                                          Which is why it's important to do either a mild chlorine wash of any veggies you eat, or at least blanch them. (not trying to lecture anyone here; all that's just my personal understanding)
