Eat In Or Eat Out in France?

Your France food bill be one of your biggest expenses of your vacation spending. We love to eat at the luxury hotels, yet we have found some nice cheaper restaurants too. However, in our experience there we also found some of the best solutions for saving quite a bit on your France food bill.
