Romantic French Coffee Culture

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. The incident alarmed the TV station, when the camera was full of "scarce supplies" customers, only to find that they took the most coffee and sugar, which once became a 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 do not drink and leave in a hurry, but slowly taste, taste carefully, read books and newspapers, talk about it, and drink 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 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, coffee shops, coffee shops. And the most popular and romantic ones are those open-air cafes, which are almost a portrayal of French coffee culture. 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 choices easily, but also have a fixed time to come to the cafe and the habit of which 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, needless to say, thank you, which are taken for granted in an authentic cafe, this is the so-called French coffee culture.
