    Ah I see. The ads I saw were on billboards so thankfully didn’t have to hear them. They were advertising some kind of “Louisiana” style chicken sandwich, which was ironic because the French find black pepper spicy. I can only imagine how mild it must actually be.

      Oh aye, Texmex restaurants are few and far between, and the authentic southern American places have to chill out their recipes and leave a bottle of chilli sauce on the table. The Argentinian place near me is run by an older lady and you can see her die inside a little bit every time a Frenchman starts sweating from eating a tortilla

        Haha, yeah we went to an Indian restaurant in Nimes because my friend has a severe gluten allergy. I had a vindaloo there that was milder than any food I’ve had in North America.
