Could be better

We don't think about them at all

Spaniards call frogs gabbachos.

We help each other with terrorism and stuff.

It's ok I guess, trash tourists go to Barcelona. Otherwise we never think about them, we prefer bullying Belgium

What is the relationship like between spa and Andorra

Frog subhumans jealous of Spanish superior food

They hate us cuz they aint us

Who doesn't.

Andorra is a supermarket

Andorra is the cum bucket of our corrupt politicians

>Andorra is the cum bucket of our corrupt politicians

sounds like Switzerland

Switzerland too

Our chavs and students sometimes get their holidays there to get wasted for cheap. Otherwise they aren't exactly relevant to us.

>Spaniards call frogs gabbachos.
what is gabacho?

>It derives from the Occitan word gavach, which translates as "someone who speaks with a faulty speech".

make me think

Why so mean to Spain!!!

Sex friend.

Because we also hate Fr*nce

i couldn't even name one spanish food, what are you talking about

...

> implying that you don't want a French gf who bullies you about your inferior cinema industry

wtf, what happened there?

Whatever, spaniards even hate Spain

S-Shut up

we only hear about them when some french goes full allahu ackbar, I guess the same happens to them

>i couldn't even name one spanish food
what about paela and jamon serrano mmmmmmm

no idea, we don't talk or think much about them
i guess it's the same for them

B-But your guys are neighbors , right?

Tacos and Chili con Carne m8

They're busy with siesta, we're busy fighting each other.
It's not a bad relationship, we respect each other a great deal in general, but we're just not really interested.

yes but honestly it feels like the Pyrenees are also in our head
We don't think about each others.
I guess it's different for people really close to the pyrenees

all of the fucking franchute's culture can be summed up to croissants,the Eiffel tower and shitty pretentious cinema

"Africa begins at the Pyrenees"

I like spain

>t. Pedro Almodovar

we hate almodovar

We have something in common then

well if I call out the pretentiousness of French cinema I have to call out almodovar's too

I honestly couldn't think of any spanish director other than him

>be me, visiting Spain
>have to ask something at the airport, so I prepare carefully what I have to say in Spanish
>airport woman answers in broken English
>both trying to understand and hide my laughter at the same time
>mfw I can understand Spanish just fine, I'm just shit at talking

paela is valid but jambon de bayonne is produced all over the south of france pedro

that's pretty normal considering our cinema utterly sucks

Alex de la Iglesia is *kinda* ok but still American cinema beats us x1000

Africa begins at the Pyrenees-French saying

Alex de la Iglesia hizo Acción mutante y El día de la bestia, fuera de eso sólo hizo cosas malas o mediocres a lo sumo

French food is the best in the world

>be me in France
>need to ask something in the port
>speak to the port woman in english (even hello, not even bonjour)
>she notices I'm spanish, responds to me in good spanish
>keep speaking to her in english, with a few terribly pronounced french words in the middle
>she keeps responding to me in good spanish
>"ok, bye bye"

I like France and visit it regularly. Some French are pretentious, but most of them are very nice.

DONT JOKE ABOUT THAT

I like your couscous and kebab, too.

>France
>responds in Spanish
fake

Au port donc probablement un truc spécialisé

Almodovar is pretentious gay asshole and his movies are all shit.

Except that one "Que he hecho yo para merecer esto?". That was ok. All his other movies are basically a shittier variation of that movie but with more feminism and grotesque.

I think he's french in spirit.

Can't disagree with this tbqh

oh yes - i visit both countries together quite honestly. first i visit my favorite vineyards in ribera del duero and rioja, then some of my favorite restaurants in San Sebastian and various spots near Bilbao, then drive to bordeaux.

i can say with absolute confidence that - while both cuisines are excellent - spanish is superior - the best in the world, in fact.

the best restaurants in the world are spanish - spain has the most 3 michelin star restuarants as well

t. Pedro el wewuzando indio de mierda

>spain has the most 3 michelin star restuarants as well
Wrong. France has 27 3 Michelin star restaurants, and the entire Iberian peninsula has 11.
Liking Spanish food better is a matter of opinion, but French food has so much more variety that I can't help but disagree.

>el wewuzando
i can't breathe

Only Spanish food I ate was paella when I was there and I didn't like it. Apart from Spanish cheese which is nice. In Spain I just eat normal food like pizza and steak and burgers

please see theworlds50best.com/
and count the number of spanish restaurants on the list versus french.

>Only Spanish food I ate was paella when I was there
and went right into the next tourist trap.

>but French food has so much more variety

Tell me what variety do they have that we don't. I'm just curious because desu I can't name a single french dish out of ratatuoille because of the movie.

>Only Spanish food I ate was paella when I was there and I didn't like it.

It's even hard for locals to find a good paella. Due to tourism the food is terrible because guiris would eat anything.

god...brits abroad - what a fucking travesty. can you just stay in your own country if you're not planning on taking part in foreign culture when you visit a foreign country?

Nope. Cherbourg.

And then in a small hotel (Bordeaux) literally the same thing happened.

>show up in la reception
>start speaking english to recepcionist woman
>she looks confused and annoyed
>sees my id card
>"ah, si! una habitacion para blabla ..."
>(mfw kek)

First we don’t drown all our dishes in olive oil.
We drown them in butter as well and sometimes both.

Also spanish cheese is worthless and tastes like sandniggers cum crust which is bad, I can tell.

canard à l'orange
foie gras
huîtres (au vin blanc)
ratatouille
bouillabaisse
raclette
fondue savoyarde
fondue bourguignonne
ris de veau
pot-au-feu
soupe à l'oignon
quenelles
tarte flambée
choucroute

that's a bit from everywhere

there are countries that can talk about the ugly brit tourist but yours is not one of them pal.

i've had the misfortune of being abroad and interacting with brits. but to be fair, i like brits and work with brits - just don't like them as tourists

why are the french so bad at cooking chicken?

> go to Beach Tourist Trap #323
> with the lads
> shirtless
> while yelling loudly in English to each other
It wouldn't surprise me if they gave you fried rat and charged you 40€ each t.b.h.

no idea what you're alluding to

How is that relevant? Your previous statement was about Michelin stars, and it was wrong. Some random ranking site isn't going to sway my opinion.
Basically, French cuisine can be split into four categories. Regional specialties, classical, haute cuisine, and nouvelle cuisine. Classical refers to foods with cream-based sauces, haute cuisine focuses on presentation, nouvelle cuisine favors smaller portions and simpler ways of cooking, and regional specialties, are, as the name implies, dishes you can only find in specific regions. And yes, Spain also has that, but what makes France truly special in that aspect is that those specialties differ as greatly from one region to another as dishes from two different countries. French cuisine is just that diverse.

Humans whose taste buds haven’t been ruined by a culinary education consisting of high fructose corn syrup and MacDonald’s burgers consider fried chicken to be a disgusting unhealthy nigger habit

t. KFC

The french made hem lose their empire, that's great.
Based Napoleon.
>I just eat normal food like pizza and steak and burgers
As if you couldn't get more americanized.
My God.

>first i visit my favorite vineyards in ribera del duero and rioja, then some of my favorite restaurants in San Sebastian and various spots near Bilbao
Great taste.
>spanish is superior - the best in the world, in fact. the best restaurants in the world are spanish - spain has the most 3 michelin star restuarants as well
You're must be kidding. We're not THAT good.
>Also spanish cheese is worthless and tastes like sandniggers cum crust
It's not your fault that you don't like cured cheese. I'm also wondering how you know how sindniggers cum tastes like, btu I think I know the answer to that.

Yeah, I'm very ignorant about your cuisine. I've never seen a french restaurant in Spain, only in UK and I went to a Cafe Rouge so that's it.

>First we don’t drown all our dishes in olive oil.

First, in northern Spain we didn't use olive oil until very recently. My grandmather still stores lard from the slaughtering of the pig for cooking (yeah, I actually go help them to slaughter the pigs every december). So tell, me what do you have we don't?

You forgot the glorious croque-monsieur.

Do you think Canary Islands food is the same as the one from Asturias or Extremadura?

>How is that relevant?
Nice diversion, bubby. Perhaps my previous statement was wrong - I was mistaken - but denying the credibility of the top 50 list is a huge mistake. It makes you look like an idiot, actually; calling it a "random ranking site" made me cringe. The ranking is highly revered, let's just leave it at that.

I'd also like to point out that quantity of dishes/variety of dishes says nothing about quality. Please stop telling me french cuisine is diverse and thinking that's a persuasive argument for why it's the best food in the world.

When you're not busy sucking frog cock, please read this New Yorker article about how the top 50 are chosen: newyorker.com/magazine/2015/11/02/whos-to-judge

Also, SPANISH food is superior in terms of quality

>First, in northern Spain we didn't use olive oil until very recently.

Bullshit
That you also use pork fat, which everybody does, to cook is irrelevant

i'll admit i know nothing about yours except paella, tapas and churros
haven't ventured beyond the pais vasco and andorra desu

leet me introduce you to the croque-madame

Spanish cheeses (apart of blue cheeses) are mostly cured cheeses.

It's a taste that either you like or don't.

Neither the French or the Spanish, or anyone with half a brain give credit to whatever ranking or number of 3 stars michelin restaurants.
This is irrelevant when it comes to judging cuisine.

>muh newyorker article

What a dumb fucking faggot

Whenever I go to France I just go to McDonalds or Burger King or Italian restauraunts lmao

Can we all be friends and agree that mediterranean cuisine is the best cuisine?

>pas bourguignonne
>pas aquitaine
*incline heaume*

Bullshit what, do you think people could afford olive oil in northern Spain before the 80s? FFS my grand mother prepares a salad without olive oil, only tomatoes, lettuce, onions and vinager

Are you one of those Frenchmen that take the boat to Hondarribia from Hendaye to eat pintxos?
>leet me introduce you to the croque-madame
Mon Dieu!

No, but that's not the point. Dishes can differ to various degrees, and it just so happens that French cuisine is the most diverse I've seen. But of course, that's not all there is to cuisine, but that's my main reason for preferring French.
>but denying the credibility of the top 50 list is a huge mistake. It makes you look like an idiot, actually; calling it a "random ranking site" made me cringe. The ranking is highly revered, let's just leave it at that.
I'm telling you that I don't care about your appeals to authority, fuckboy. Why don't you stop posting articles nobody wants to read, go outside, treat yourself to a good old fondue savoyarde and see the error of your ways?

Your granny is a lying bitch that’s all there is to it

yes, I agree with this 100%

top kek why are you so butthurt?

why are there so many prostitutes in psain
