It's a mix of white beans with tomato sauce, goose or duck fat, sausages and (duck/goose) meat. Very tasty!

Cassoulet is a dish you eat usually in winter because it's rich, not very fat, but rich of calories. It comes from south west of France (Toulouse, Castelnaudary...)
It's mainly made with beans, pork sausages or duck. I prefer a cassoulet with pork only or one with duck only.

The one thing the French do that is truly VILE is that awful tripe sausage ..... Andouillette. I can eat most things but that just makes me feel sick.

Yeah, I've tried to like andouillette and have eventually figured that smothering even the five star variants in mustard to make it palatable isn't really the way forward.

That said I did encounter an even more challenging fishy version of it a couple of years ago in China which made the French offering seem like a food of the gods...

Mitraillette for me please! First at it at Le Mans 1999 when the wooden village was stil there. Never saw it again anywhere, but some snackbars in belgium also sell them.

(also called americain or sandwich americain in France)

Oh sweet devine Jesus ..... yeah , I had that tripe sausage too . I wasn't aware it was a tripe sausage , It looked so good on that grill , impersonating a nice big fat sausage in a nice French bread roll .

Mine musta been made from bird tripe cuy as soon as my tongue found the hidden tube (vain) it also grew wings and flew into the barrel ..... along with the Tartiflette .

Cant go wrong with a marguey or a croc mister .....

Its just occurred that while the French are world renowned for their cookery , Its truly quite amaying that the French arnt cannibals ..........

Sandwich americain is a favourite! I expect to have that at least 2-3 times during the week. With merguez, of course....

I've never had an andouillette, nor have I seen or heard of it until now, but is looks absolutely awful.

The Chinatown in Vancouver sold something very similar... smelled terrible.

True "American sandwiches" aren't that great, IMO. Maybe I'm just used to them and got bored. Merguez is great!

That suggests you knew what you were ordering in Vancouver Beck... At least in Chengdu I can fall back on the defence that I was randomly pointing at bits of Mandarin on the menu and relying on blind hope...
