Sometimes I put on a big white cooking hat and sing "Un Plat Qui Plait" while not cooking the recipes I don't remember.

“Un Plat Qui Plait” (mp3 download link)

I love French cuisine. And I wish I could cook. But in the meantime I wrote a little chanson where I get to pretend that I cooked this amazing French dish. And I conveniently don’t remember the recipe. But one thing I do remember: It smelled good. Ça sentait bon, bon bon!

Bon appetit!

Lyrics to “Un Plat Qui Plaît”

Moi, j’ai fait un plat qui plaît
A tous les gens de la France
Veux-tu savoir ce que c’est

Mon plat qui plaît est un secret
Tu n’as pas beaucoup de chance
Devine bien avec ton nez

Ça sent bon, bon, bon
Ça sent si bon
Ça sent bon, bon, bon
Mais pas longtemps

Mon plat qui plaît s’est fait mangé
Il ne reste qu’une seule tranche
Disparu et terminé

Je m’ souviens plus comment j’ai pu
Faire un plat qui plaît tant
Tellement riche mais pas trop lourd

Mais pour finir je peux te dire
Pourquoi ça sentait si bon
J’ai bien fait mon plat au four

Ça sentait bon, bon, bon
Sentait si bon
Bon, bon, bon
Il y a longtemps

Mais l’ingrédient le plus important
Je m’ souviens d’ ça pour toujours
C’était un grand bol d’amour

English translation of “Un Plat Qui Plaît”

A well-liked dish

I have made a dish that is well-liked
By all the people of France
Would you like to know what it is

My well-liked dish is a secret
You’re not very lucky
Take a guess with your nose

It smells good, good, good

It smells so good
It smells good, good, good
But not for long

My well-liked dish was eaten
Not a single slice is left
Disappeared and finished

I don’t recall how I was able
To make such a well-liked dish
So rich and yet not too heavy

But, finally, I can tell you
Why it smelled so good
I made my dish in the oven

It smelled good, good, good
Smelled so good
Good, good, good
A long time ago

But the most important ingredient
I will always remember
It was a large bowl of love

Click around and have some fun!
