The croissant is not French. It descends from the Austrian kipferl, and it arrived in Paris around 1838 with an Austrian artillery officer turned baker named August Zang, whose shop on the rue de Richelieu was copied across the city until the copies became the original. Laminating it with layers of butter was the French contribution.
Two more began as thrift. Bouillabaisse was what Marseille fishermen cooked from the rockfish nobody would buy, and it became expensive only once restaurants got hold of it. Tarte Tatin is said to have been an accident at a hotel in Lamotte-Beuvron, where one of the Tatin sisters overcooked the apples and put the pastry on top to rescue them, then served the whole thing upside down.
