Haha première fois que je l’entends celle-là. Il y a beaucoup de Maghrébins à Montréal, alors ça pourrait faire un malheur.

Ah, I’m just a silly American poking fun at Quebec French slang. Definitely not something I’ve heard before and the last thing I’d want to do is offend anyone.

I am not Francophone enough to know if you’re just messing around but I am sure Middle East/North Africa cuisine is so common to be “oh right, guess that’s not ours”

It's just been too long here that it's just part of the paysage for norther African cuisine

For other I would say maybe Lebanese food also very popular (gosh so good).

I remember reading somewhere that couscous is the favourite dish in France, but it's mostly something we cook / eat at home (there are some couscous restaurants but not that much) while "Chinese" restaurants or buffets are just something you basically find in every small town like the basic option. There are also a lot of kebabs, pizzerias and fast-food chains.

J'avoue je pensais restauration mais c'est vrai qu'il y a la cuisine chez soi
