    I need Ollie to bring Josh to a fake michelin star restaurant he sets up himself where he serves him very average food but with fancy name and plating getting increasingly worse with each course and see how Josh reacts to each bite. That would be peak entertainment. There could even be an actor telling stories about each course and cheap wine pairing and all. Please make it happen!

      That's not just politeness, some taste require to get used to them and the same ingredient will taste different depending of its origin or preparation.

Aside from the restaurant the Jolly boys ate at, those dishes aren't served by your average bistrots, which are reasonably priced. There are lots of restaurants that serve frog legs, snails, etc but they tend to be on the pricier side of dining. I love oysters and in a coastal city that I often visit, a plate of raw oysters will fetch about 20 euros, which my family will go through 3 or 4 orders before we go onto eating the main meal.

    What a lovely chef! To take the time and energy to put this together and do it with such care and consideration and hospitality- *chef’s kiss*. 💜 That being said, as much as I respect and admire the dear chef, I don’t think my pallet would appreciate his menu. 🤣

    You see there that most people on social media who review food don't really know anything about food. French cuisine is always underrated and Italian cuisine is like the best of the best. Don't get me wrong, I love Italian food, but in my opinion you can't compare it to French gastronomy.
