Being first generation American and raised by French parents, I don’t think it is all about the food. It’s the experience of eating together as a group, be it with friends or family, and socializing. My mom insisted on eating on eating together as a family, and I took part in many cultural outings where I saw people eat and talk, with emphasis on talk. I learned to value the experience on being with others and cherish relationships, which is probably the real lesson.

Wow. What a great experience you were able to give to your kids! We really enjoy cooking with our kids, and always try to make their meals look fun. I am a bit intimidated by French cuisine but your opinion makes it seem more about the culture around the food rather than the food itself. I like keeping food culture fun (And wine for the grownups is always a great addition!). Good luck with your blog!
