| Oct 16, 2016 at 19:16 | comment | added | JavaLatte | maybe your British friends are a little more sophisticated than mine. I hear it regularly from europeans, arabs and asians who have a similar expression in their own language and believe (wrongly) that it is the appropriate thing to say to an English person. It's French, though: we don't really have an expression of our own. english.stackexchange.com/questions/185701/… | |

| Oct 16, 2016 at 18:07 | comment | added | JavaLatte | I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because "bon appetit" is a French espression. | |
| Oct 16, 2016 at 18:06 | comment | added | JavaLatte | You usually say it when you are in France. In England, you say "Enjoy your meal" to somebody before they start eating. | |
