Do you like French food?
>>7131768
Yeah. I used to work for a French company in NYC and every few months they'd have this wine and cheese tasting thing, it was really good and I was able to sample different things. There was this guy there from France that brought in a crepe cooking set, I'm not sure exactly what it was called but he'd make all of us fresh crepes.
>>7131768
Yes, very much so.

They also have good taste in other things as well, we hired Cirque du Soleil for a Christmas party. Good times!
I really want to try out Coq au vin but just haven't a had a chance to try it. One of these days I will.
Je ne connais pas bien la cuisine français.

But then I wouldn't know if it was correct or not. This may come across as strange but I need to eat it from one or two proper French restaurants so I have a base for comparison to what I can do myself.

Living in MD I don't know shit where to find a decent french restaurant so I never had it before
The flavor is explosive.

Or you could make it to your own taste and stop being an elitist. Cooking isn't about following recipes to the core.
I've only had potatoes au gratin out of a box'
and croissants

>But then I wouldn't know if it was correct or not
There is no "correct" coq au vin. It was a peasant dish: when you had nothing left to eat but the stringy ol' barnyard rooster then you stew it in wine to make it tender along with whatever veggies you had.

That's how to live and learn.
Good times.
