Croque Monsieurs

[randomer]

I have the opportunity to go to Disneyland (Paris) for a weekend some time this spring. I hate disneyland but was thinking of going just to get a croque monsieur because they are so delicious. Does anybody know if there is anywhere near the resort where I can get one? Thanks.

You can buy them in any French supermarket to grill yourself.They are widely available in most cafes in France too

Get a slice of buttered toast, spread thin layer of mustard (to taste), put on slice of ham followed by good strong chedder cheese. Under the grill until the cheese melts and....voila.

The cheese in a croque monsieur should be mild and have a very high fat content. You can buy the cheese in all supermarkets over there and I've seen it in Waitrose over here.

Best one I've ever had had a soft cheese like a primula or similar piped on the top and then grilled. Sheer heaven!!

Don't remember being able to get one actually in Disneyland but the centre of Paris and its amazing cafes are only short train ride away!! Well worth it.

You can get them in Disneyland but they are not very nice - they put some sort of gunk on the outside of them so they are a bit soggy (noticed that they do this in some other places too - big disappointment!).

or try a "croque madame", it's the same but with a fried egg on top! Yummy!
