Good lor this was over 35 years ago, I have no idea what it said on the menu, although if I remember correctly it was the brother in law who ordered for me, as my French is very limited. The waiter couldn't speak English (or refused to) and when I tried German he didn't seem too pleased.

Me too, I just love a huge burger with fries, or steak and kidney pudding.

Bangers and mash must include fried onions with the obligatory four slices of fresh crusty bread with lashings of butter washed down with a mug of tea.
