Could you give me some ideas of French cuisine dishes that isn't haute cuisine? For example, what kind of food would I expect if I went to the South part from France?

The most famous example of that would be "ratatouille", the dish that inspired the pixar animated movie.

Another one is "Bouillabaisse", a famous provençal dish.

Another one: Tomates à la Provençales

Probably Savoie. I'm very fond of Raclette ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raclette ) and Tartiflette ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tartiflette ).
