RE: A fantastic evening at a unique restaurant in the Morvan. It is situated at a beautiful lake and the food is delicious.
This typical French place looks like such a food gem. Big portions also!!
You know what I love about Frenchies. They spend on average 3 hours a day on food in social settings. 3 hours every day.
In the most typical hurry up cultures this is degraded to some take away sandwich in the car alone. Frenchies do it different. I like that!
I don't know if it is so long as you wrote, but I do know that here in The Morvan they like to have at least a lunch break of 2 hours. between 12.00 and 14.00, the work is stopped and people go home for a hot lunch or have one at a (small) restaurant. In the big cities life will be different I think.
Correction 2 hours and 13 minutes it is according to this article, also referring to if this is a connection with obesity

Wow, I didn't know the connection with obesity, although I don't find the French women fat. Some old women are, but the younger ones are quite 'normal'.
Thats the point ;)
The article says that French DONT have so much obesity because they dont do fast food and take their full attention to their meal. ;)
