[CAEN for tripe or CHEZ NOUS for planting cabbage, for example]", where it can refer to any particular way of doing anything. Even without the "de" it can refer to a particular food dish/preparation in both languages: "Beef/boeuf à la mode," but don't ask for that dish (not in France at least) expecting to get a scoop of ice cream on your slice of roast beef! | |
