2. Les jeunes et la
nourriture
In general, French teenagers eat their
main meals at home with their families.
On weekends or after
school, however, when they are with
friends, they often stop at a fast-food
restaurant or a café for something to
eat.
At fast-food restaurants, French
teenagers order pretty much the same
types of foods as Americans:
hamburgers, hot dogs and pizza
At a café, teenagers may order a
croissant, a sandwich, or a dish of ice
cream. Some favorite sandwiches are
ham (un sandwich au jambon), Swiss
Cheese (un sandwich au fromage), or
salami (un sandwich au saucisson).
And of course, they are made with
French bread, which has a crunchy
crust. Another traditional quick café
meal is a small steak with French fries
(un steak-fries).
3. Le Café
The café is a favorite gathering
place for French young people.
They go there not only when they
are hungry or thirsty but also to
meet their friends.
They can sit at a table and talk for
hours over a cup of coffee or a
glass of juice. French young
people also enjoy mineral water
and soft drinks
In a French café, a 15% service
charge is included in the check.
However, most people also leave
some small change as an added
tip.
