France
Menus are varied, and regional. You'll find simpler dishes served at bistros, and extravagantly prepared multi-course meals at formal restaurants. Specialties include foie gras (goose liver), and bouillabaisse (fish stew), fish, meat, and interesting vegetable dishes. French cuisine is also notable for its remarkable sauces (often cream-based), sumptuous desserts, and exquisite wines.
