forumule or prix fixe
Can someone explain the difference between the use of "formule" versus "prix fixe" at restaurants in Paris? Is formule only for lunch? In other words, what expression is now current for saying special priced meal of the day?

Formule is either appetizer + main dish or main dish + dessert.
Usually for lunch.
Prix fixe : multi-course meal at a set price (appetizer, main dish, dessert, sometimes drink and coffee). Both at lunch and dinner.
