Neess-wazz.

It's a mixed salad that comes from the city of Nice, pronounced "Neess". The "c" has a cedilla, which means you pronounce it like "ss". And "oise" is pronounced "wazz".



Who knew!

Same. This is on my list. But the PPs here seem pretty certain and correct, so I may move it off.

Next up: bourguignon. (“uh, I’ll have the beef…” [points]
