French food culture you must know

In France you should know these 4 steps/stages before you make your order at the restaurant.

    1. Aperitif: this could be in the form of wine or some snacks to prepare you for the next stage.
    1. Entrèe: this would be served before your main food arrives. Sometimes in the form of salades and bagget, it depends on your order.
    1. Plat principal: This is the main food as the name principal indicates. Make sure you leave some space in your stomach for the last episode.
    1. Dessert: After the plate principal, get ready for your dessert before you leave the premises.

I have come to realise that if you do not have time for eating, don’t try the french restaurant.

Thanks for the food lesson @2serious - and also for the caution - to not venture into a French meal without time.
