That was for drinks only, I thought. Not sure if bar meals were existent and cheaper. I just remember that you literally pay the French per step they take for you.
Oh, and talking about coffee and French speaking parts of the world. I remember the menu stating 'un cafe' 7 euro, 'un cafe s'il vous plait' 4,5 euro and 'bonjour, un cafe s'il vous plait' being 1,8 euro or so. Even politeness can make your trip cheaper.
