Briefly

In a recent exploration of French cuisine, the author discusses the ranking of the best sandwiches by Time Out magazine, noting the top choice as a French sandwich. However, the author expresses a personal dislike for French sandwiches, finding them overly bready and lacking in substance. Instead, they are more attracted to spicier options, which are harder to find in France. Additionally, the author praises regional cuisine in northern France, which boasts delightful seafood, and mentions its growing recognition through cinema.
The Time Out magazine's recent ranking of the best sandwiches has sparked a discussion, especially regarding the French sandwich that took the top spot.
Living in France for almost six years has made me appreciate the cuisine, but I have to admit, I struggle to enjoy French sandwiches.
Despite the French sandwich being rated highly, I found myself more intrigued by sandwiches from other regions, which often offer spicier options.
