What exactly is BASQUE food?!
I know its an area in France!? I went to a restaurant and me and my friends got "the setup" which consisted of the first course some kind of bland cabbage soup that they give you some salsa and bland pinto beans to mix in and bread, then spaghetti, corn, something else and french fries!?! hah i didnt eat anything but the garlic fries!. I just thought it was a random array of food, and it was verrrrry expensive!. Just break it down to me!Www@FoodAQ@Com
