Last Updated: 2024/11/05, I have heard that France once drank less coffee because of a shortage of coffee, and immediately saw more people taking a nap. It may seem like an exaggeration, but it is true that the French are addicted to coffee. When the Gulf War broke out in 1991, France was also one of the countries participating in the war. some ordinary people in China worried that the war would affect the supply of daily necessities and rushed to supermarkets to buy them. Even the TV station was alarmed when the camera was in front of it.

I have heard that France once drank less coffee because of a shortage of coffee, and immediately saw more people taking a nap. It may seem like an exaggeration, but it is true that the French are addicted to coffee. When the "Gulf War" broke out in 1991, France was also one of the countries participating in the war. some ordinary people in China worried that the war would affect the supply of daily necessities and rushed to supermarkets to buy them. Even the TV station was alarmed by the fact that when the camera looked at customers who were full of "scarce supplies", they found that they took the most coffee and sugar. At one point, it became a big joke at that time.

The French do not seem to pay attention to the taste, but the environment and atmosphere. Most of them do not want to drink alone behind closed doors, but join in the fun outside, even if the price of a small cup is enough to make a pot at home. They did not drink hurriedly, but tasted slowly, tasted carefully, read books and newspapers, talked about it, and drank it for most of the day. French people develop this habit of drinking coffee, whether they consciously express a kind of elegant charm, a kind of romantic sentiment, a kind of freehand feeling of enjoying life. It can be said that this is a traditional and unique coffee culture. Because of this, the places where people can rest and drink coffee in France can be said to be all over the streets, roadsides, squares, riverbanks, cruise ships, and even the Eiffel Tower. And the form, style, size are not limited to one style, there are coffee shops, restaurants, halls, rooms. And the most popular and romantic ones are those open-air cafes, which are almost a portrayal of French life. No wonder the tasteful French have a traditional saying that it may be more difficult to get someone to change a cafe by the Seine than to change a religion! In an authentic cafe, regular customers not only never change their coffee shop easily, but also have a fixed time to come to the cafe and the habit of which coffee table to sit on. Of course, this loyal relationship is also reflected in the hospitable and tireless host, without greeting, the old waiter who is familiar with his frequent customers' temper and hobby will bring his favorite kind of coffee, accompanied by a plate of special snacks, and even bring his favorite newspapers and periodicals, needless to say thank you, which are taken for granted in an authentic cafe.
