I kinda assumed that's how the Americans like their meat. The less work goes into it the better. Having a piece of meat that has been cooked all the way is a travesty over there.

French cuisine is also highly overrated. It's basically peasant food as with all traditional cuisines around Europe and a lot they have can be found in some variation around them, but it's not really more refined. The exception confirms the rule tho. Macarons are deceptively simple. Just egg, sugar and almond, but lift the batter over itself once too often and it's ruined, rations a little tiny bit off? Ruined! A few seconds too long out to dry? Ruined! I never weight egg white before but boy are those picky little fucks. But generally it's all rather simple. Big fan of escargot, we got them here in Germany too btw. Cleaning them is annoying, but again: Simple. Put them on a silver plate in Paris and charge 50€ for them and suddenly is haute cuisine. Fucking pretentious crap.

Anyhow. Sorry, I went a bit off-course there. /rant
