My S. American friend has just come baxk with the food. How does calling it Croque-Monsieur make my ham and cheese sandwich taste any better?

it's the same reason they call it a cafe latte.
its just coffee.
fancy names are put on things to a) add an excitement factor, which makes people believe they are getting something more impressive than they actually are and b) to jack up the price because of A

It doesn't. However if marketing can enhance a personal perception to be swayed that you're getting better/more/higher quality or class cuisine by calling it "cuisine" over "food" or "grub" then marketing has done what it was paid to do - change you.
If you are centered and know yourself then nothing anyone calls something will make it better or worse - you will be the master of your own taste and taste-buds.
Cheers

I guess you are paying for the "ambiance" of the restaurant.
