Paris waiters and waitresses dash to victory in revived 110-year-old racing tradition
Fox News
In a celebration of Parisian culture and tradition, the city recently revived a 110-year-old tradition: a race for waiters and waitresses through central Paris.
Why? Because they make France's cafés and restaurants tick. Without them, where would the French gather to put the world to rights over drinks and food? Where would they quarrel and fall in (and out of) love? And where else could they simply sit and let their minds wander? They have penned songs and poems about their "bistrots," so attached are they to their unpretentious watering holes that for generations have nourished their bodies and souls.
