Les Miserables

Sure, everyone’s starving in Les Mis, but that doesn’t mean food still doesn’t play a role in the lavishly-produced musical. Serve a French-inspired menu of cassoulet made with sausage (but not the Thénardiers version!) alongside a crusty loaf of bread, of course. A romantic dessert like a raspberry tart is the perfect grand finale. Don’t forget to serve lots of French red wine!
