Surrender your tastebuds to the endless famous dishes to eat in France. We’ll get you started with our tips on the best foods that should shoot straight to the top of your list.. Bon appetit!
You’ll no doubt treat yourself to many divine pastries in France, but the most iconic of them all is the croissant. This buttery, flaky, crescent-shaped delight is best eaten by tearing off fluffy chunks, slathering them with creamy butter or jam, and washing it all down with a hot cup of coffee.
Hailing from Nice as a poor man’s dish, ratatouille has gone on to delight millions around the world. Made from a rainbow of summer veggies like eggplant, tomatoes and squash, and infused with the fragrance of garlic, thyme and basil, there's nothing more comforting than a bubbling pot served piping hot.
Everyone raves about crème brûlée and it only takes one bite to understand why. The name means ‘burnt cream’ and it’s made from a delicious custard made from eggs, cream, sugar and vanilla, and topped with a scorched caramelised sugar that cracks in your mouth. So rich, so creamy… and so good!
