A recent investigation by Belgian TV channel 8 sur 6 showed that French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife have maintained the habit of eating Vietnamese food every Wednesday of the week for many years.

Mr. Macron began his passion for Vietnamese cuisine during a trip to Vietnam in 1998 when he was a student. The French President is particularly fond of shrimp spring rolls while his wife, Brigitte Macron, often requests fried spring rolls.

As usual, every Wednesday evening the French President and his wife are present at the Vietnamese fast food restaurant Tran Lo at 7:30 pm. The meal begins 30 minutes later, a peaceful time for the two to chat and watch the evening news on France 2.

French media said that besides delicious taste, Vietnamese dishes are also known to the world for being clean and healthy. This may be the reason why Mr. Macron often chooses them to maintain his health and figure.
