[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I spent 8 weeks in Europe and I found that most places that served simple breakfast provided bread of some kind (more often a roll) with slices and meat and cheese. I had that more than I had croissants or pastries. There was also often yogurt and sometimes a piece of fruit. [/quote]
Europe is not France.  Eating meat and cheese for breakfast puts you in northern Europe--German/the Netherlands/Scandinavia.  [/quote]
I was just in Paris in the beginning of Feb and what PP wrote was exactly what was served for breakfast every day.[/quote]

As a Parisian,  I can assure you that Paris is full of tourists, [b]its actually pretty insufferable. [/b]This is why you were served this. You think this is European. It's not, it's German habit that appeals to the throngs of tourists.

Your experience was not authentic. [/quote]

DP I'm sure if there were no tourists than you would wish that you had the "insufferable" tourists there giving your country money![/quote]
