(Tip 2) Complain

France is a country who loves to savor their food, drinks and time with friends. Thus, do not expect the service to go efficiently when in restaurants or cafes. So, try not to complain about long waits and slower service. People in France are not in rush, you will notice that service is slower which may irritate you if you are used to fast service. Take your time and savor the moment when buying your coffee in cafes.
