Hey there! Coq au vin is a classic French dish that translates to "rooster in wine." 
It dates back to ancient times and was originally made with a rooster, which was a common bird in rural France. The dish became popular in the 20th century, especially after Julia Child featured it in her cooking show, helping to introduce it to a wider audience. There are many variations, with some regions using different types of wine, like Beaujolais or Burgundy, and adding unique ingredients like mushrooms or lardons. It's a delicious way to experience French culinary tradition!
