Typical Meal

Breakfast- French people love their croissants at just about every french breakfast meal.  Whether you choose the fanciest restaurant or the most inexpensive café, you’ll have your choice of a few different types of croissants, usually served with butter or jam. 

Lunch-The French like to eat lunch at a leisurely pace, even if it’s in the middle of a hectic business schedule.  For the French, partaking in good food, at a relaxing pace, is part and parcel of the French culture, with lunch lasting as long as two hours.

Dinner-French dinners, like lunches, tend to be big affairs.  Three course meals are common, accompanied with the traditional cheese, wine, bread, and mineral water.  Dinner starts at about 7:00 to 7:30 pm and can last up to a couple of hours.  Like lunch, dinner is a time to relax and spend time with friends and family.
