my favourite dishes
as a Frenchman I can tell you escargots and grog legs are probably the most disgusting in our cuisine, many people don't like that here. I would recommend you Boeuf Bourguignon ( beef cooked in red wine) , Veau Marengo ( calf in a tomato sauce) , raclette and fondue savoyarde or fondue bourguignone , hachis parmentier , cassoulet is divine too , in my region we have paté Lorrain which is absolutely gorgeous . Quiche is from my region too as well as Potée Lorraine ( a mix of vegetable and pork meat )and choucroute ( sauerkraut in German ) is very popular here...
without forgetting all the pastries we have , too many to mention but eclairs , croissants , Paris Brest , religieuses , napolitains... would die for them lol |

When I was a kid, I remember eating a fair amount of "escargot" at fancy restaurants. It was quite expensive, but I liked it a lot. Although I can't say whether I would like it now. But it's not like it's much different from eating oysters or clams....just a smaller mollusk

I dont know so much about cooking, I just know the french gastronomy is one of the most complete in the world.
Have you ever tried with the dishes of Ratatouille ? |

I feel like dancing in a meadow of flowers
I bake. Although i rarely find myself making my own food, all i know are steak, bacon and eggs, omelette, spaghetti and meatballs, and occasionally a french crepe. I can make muffins, cookies, cake, big or small, and other fancy desserts. I dont look into books or anything when i bake, i just make whatever comes into my mind or anything im influenced into making. I once made a dragon cake, but i didnt write down how i did it, so i forgot the next day, im gonna try making it again one day. But even if i dont, i know my mom loves to cook, she has the Food&Wine magazines, the cooks illustrated, and she has magazines from gourmet to bon appetit. perhaps you should buy some french cooks magazines, im sure you'll find out lots about french dishes. Either that, or go to france Thats how i found out the most about french food

I've been raised around Asian cuisines.
One of my parents being an Indoman, I learned a lot from him about different exotic spices, and cooking methods, that have been passed down his family line. The things i've made before were Mongolian Beef m/w Bok Choy and Fried Rice, Steamed Cod in Black Bean and Oyster sauce, and of course, perhaps one of my signature recipes, Swedish Meatball Curry. As for French food, I can't say i've tried many, Crépes are absolutely delicious if you know the right stuff, i've tasted some Cherry crépes that were absolutely dreadful and sour, i've tried some chocolate crépes that were quite heavenly, and this is coming from a person that absolutely dislikes most solid forms of sugar treats. Escargot, despite the exterior mask of disgust, tastes like gooey chicken, it was distasteful for me, but nonetheless interesting. Frogs Legs are a specialty, and the French way of preparing them differs much from the Pacific Island way, in some places, the French-style of Frog Legs are quite a kick in your mouth of flavor. The Veau Marengo, I have to recommend, it...is...godly.

Oh yes the name of a dish, that seems to be easy to cook, is Ratatouille, just like the movie.
