Maison (may-ZOHN)
You may find this French word for “house” describing menu offerings. In the food world, it means “specialty of the house.” That denotes a special dish created by the house chef. Asking the waiter for the “spécialités maison” menu in a French restaurant will limit your choices to these special items.
