However, we never found a good, reasonably-priced French restaurant on this last trip.
One night we couldn't find any good restaurant options. We'd been driving all day and we were hungry and tired and every restaurant we checked was priced too high and only offered pub food or Chuck-a-Rama-like buffets anyway. We resorted to eating at a moderately-priced restaurant near our hotel, an "American" restaurant.
Don't judge us.
Our waiter wore a giant belt buckle and a bolo tie. Instead of being served bread before the meal, we were given a bowl of popcorn. Our placemats could be turned over to reveal special games that involved word searches and puzzles about the Wild West.
It was so sad.
And we were in France.
Fortunately, Germany totally came through for us on the food front. All of our meals there were so delicious.

That is just too funny.
Once on a business trip to the Netherlands, the staff there wanted to take me to...APPLEBEES. I was very sad when I could not talk them out of it. They made up for it the next night though and took me to a Hungarian place.
France, Samance, I'd gone for Buffalo Bills. Maybe no fancy pastries or unidentified food items covered in some sort of sauce. At least BB's only had the one true sauce, GRAVY, and it appears from the picture to be lots of that. OK I'm lying I would have preferred like you to have more authentic dishes. Too bad maybe next time.

Popcorn. That's a new one.
KWB--Oh, no! That's German gravy! That was one of the good meals. At the Buffalo Grill, Steve had a hamburger made from pressed meat and I had rubbery, unseasoned fish. No gravy. That would have been a luxury.
OOH I feel your stomach pain from here.
