How do you pronounce Pret a Manger?

Anonymous
You pronounce the t is Pret, that is the correct French way to say it since it is followed by a vowel. For example, you say the final R in Louvre, and saying Loov is wrong which seems to be the preferred American pronunciation.

I used to say "Manger" like "Away in a Manger..." just to annoy my British colleagues and feed their dumb American stereotypes.
