I am French and we will say that the meal was good even if it was not ("thanks, it was excellent" )

- refurb 6y agoWhat if the meal was actually bad? Would you still say it? Some (not all) Americans would. Obviously it’s a generalization, but an observation I found interesting.
- Markoff 6y agoI'm from grumpy part of Europe, I would say with specific disappointed expression "it was OK" meaning it was definitely not OK
- BrandoElFollito 6y agoYes I would,especially if I was invited and saw that someone made an effort but that are just not that talented. So in a restaurant I wrote not say anything (and words not come back), if the meal was truly bad I woke say it was not good and probably leave some comments somewhere (I did it only once because it was really bad).
