grill courtepaille | french fast food



France is known for its wonderful cuisine, so you would expect that the French also do a better job at fast food than we Americans. I had the opportunity to have lunch at a roadside grill cortepaille restaurant during my trip to France this past April. I can report that this is a great place to stop for a simple but tasty meal.

Everything is grilled over an open flame and served hot, along with delectable frites. Pictured below is their brochette de canard et figues at 15.90€.


We saw lots of French families having lunch during our meal. Although McDonalds is popular in France, why not try something local and authentic. Grill courtepaille is definitely a great place to stop if you're driving on an autoroute and you see one of their restaurants when you stop for lunch.
