I ordered “bif stek something or other” in France not knowing the language and thinking I was getting steak. Surprise, surprise...it was liver. And it actually tasted wonderful until I realized the texture was too smooth, and it was not steak, and swapped with my husband. I think it could be probably disguised with sauces where you could choke it down.
What, no Black Livers Matter yet.
Well, now there is.
Guidebooks to Paris tell you that you will always mis-order. I certainly did. Generally what you get is ok. You’re lucky you didn’t order horsemeat which is still popular there!
