Eating Outhome > eating outFrench cookingFrench cooking is one of most famous cuisines in the world, so a visit to Paris should integrate at least a visite into the one of the many tables of Paris. The choice is huge, as well in specialities as in range of price. There are several different types of menus, offering varying degrees of selection and price, which it is helpful to understand: La carte: Everything on the normal menu, usually more expensive. Main courses arrive with a garnish of vegetables. There might also be a plat du jour (dish of the day). Menu prix-fixe: Fixed-price meal, usually consists of four courses and may include wine. Better than à la carte, quality is good, tax and service are included. Many restaurants offer several set menus at different price levels. Look for a menu du jour (a set menu of the day), which will generally be freshest and best, and check out what those around you have ordered. Menu dégustation/menu surprise: A tasting menu, presenting you with a procession of small servings (chosen by the chef if it is the surprise menu). The simple restriction: everyone at the table must have the same menu. Menu touristique: Uninteresting tourist food, not recommended. Table d'hôte: Traditional home cooking offered in country restaurants, Relatively cheap. previous: accommodation
