You underestimate how important bread still is in French cuisine. I was just in Paris and complained to the concierge at our high end hotel about a bad restaurant recommendation. He said he didn't need to hear anymore about how bad the meal was after I said the bread was bad (and stale). In other simple French food news, Joel Robouchon is known for saying his last meal would be a good potato with good butter.
