Bon appétit et large soif !

[sirspensir]

Bonjour tout le monde,
je regarde une série et j'ai entendu 'bon appétit et large soif'. C'était le moment où tout le monde allait commencer à manger.
Qu'est-ce que ´large soif' veut dire?
Maybe 'bottoms up'?

Apparently, Bon appétit et large soif ! is an expression coined by the late great chef Paul Bocuse.
You're basically wishing your fellow diners a hearty appetite and ~considerable thirst,
a sort of Eat, Drink, and Be Merry situation.

"Eat Hearty and Drink Up!" ?

"Eat Hearty and Drink Up!" ?

Sounds like people are being asked to finish their drinks...

In BE (a guess, I'm AE), "Happy Browsing and Sluicing!" maybe?
