No way this is real.

The waiter would have said "Non."

I am not a vegan but oat milk lattes are the best lattes. They are creamy, rich with flavor that's perfectly aligned w the coffee, lower in calories & more sustainable than classic dairy.

Everyone should try them once at least.

We wanted to order pizza and I told my girlfriend (who is Italian) that I might order Pizza Hawaii. Her reflexes kicked in and she bit me.

I'm a french vegetarian living in France after living 6 years in Scotland, France is years behind on the diet inclusion issue, I was shocked how difficult it was to find a place to eat out in Paris, way too many cafe/restaurant/etc.. gets defensive and refuse to serve you if you don't have the "historical diet" (whatever that means) of france, and a lot of them don't offer any "common alternative diet" options on the menu. And it's not better outside of Paris.

Then of course there are some great places that try to include everyone regardless of their diet, and they are increasing in numbers, but they are still the exception rather than the norm which is a shame.

If you ever goes in Paris and looking for a fully vegetarian classy restaurant, I recommand "Polichinelle", it's a bit on the expensive side (~50 euro/person), but it's high level cuisine, and for a special occasion it's really worth it.

That is the standard response in France, I'm surprise that waiter was so polite about it.

That's probably the most polite barista in Paris. I'd have expected a tirade, complete with arm waving and rude gestures.

So I guess, fuck lactose intolerant, amiright?

I love France they take food and tradition seriously while at the same time their own government is afraid off them.

In Italy, at “L'Isola della Pizza” in Rome, I asked the guy if I could get a pizza with salami, pepperoni, and sausage, and the guy was like “ah, American style!”

Ah, the french.

Don't know where europe would be without them.

I was on vacation in Flavigny, an incredibly beautiful small village in Burgundy. I wanted my green beans straight from the garden behind the restaurant without butter and asked to use olive oil instead. The waiter was like "Why!?". It took me five minutes to convince him, he was absolutely unsympathetic and I think I had to pay extra. :)

Lots of comments complaining about restaurants not being inclusive, but it's unrealistic to expect others to bend to your needs.

I can't go to a vegan joint and get upset when they don't want to serve me a steak.

Nor can I het upset when a restaurant isn't Halal.

If you want vegan, go to a place that sells vegan food.

I love France and all, but let's not pretend they have good coffee culture. What passes for cappuccino there... The horrors I've seen.

Food snobs might be one of my least favorite types of humans there are. The minute I hear/see someone start talking about how they would never eat that or whatever other bullshit, is almost like I'm hearing them start talking about the good things Trump is doing for everyone. Let's never cross paths again, you're insufferable.

The French are right. When you have fabled cuisine, lauded all over the world as the gold standard… you get resistant to change. And rightfully so.

Putain, non, is indeed the proper response to said question.
