I think the general French disinterest in dietary requirements, that don’t line up with typical French cuisine, definitely contributed to the experience.
But I agree, I was a bit put out at the lack of trying to make me welcome on first time of meeting that particular branch of extended family, which I accept is not something to be attributed based on nationality!
The bread lunch was at a restaurant in a private function room, but don’t worry dinner back at their home saved the day - that was a vegetarian salad with lardons…
