We are travelling through 2 towns in Brittany and one in Normandy in today's episode. Starting with the oyster market in Cancale and a seafood tower by the beach. Off to the picturesque town of Saint Malo for some sightseeing. Finally to the outskirts of Brittany and into Normandy we will visit the world famous Mont Saint Michel. Don't forget to stop for galette.

      Hi Luke n' Mink, thanks for coming in France. Great review, l think you should also visit and eat specialities in South West close to Spain. And in South Est close to Italy because l sm pretty sure you will those areas. The food in insanely good, different of 3 cities you went during this trip. So, maybe the next one 🙏 enjoy

    Welcome to ma Bretagne! As an American who moved here, I absolutely love this region for its super fresh food. Did you know that 70% of the produce grown in this country are from Brittany? The bio farms, fantastic breweries, rum route, and so many other culinary delights make this a gastronomic haven! There’s sooooooo much more to this region. I love living here.

      @@morvegil Well, Bretagne is one of the largest regions in France and it will depend upon how much time you have and if you have access to a car. For bigger cities, I suggest Saint Malo and Rennes. However, if you were specifically referring to the fact that you will be in Cancale in two weeks, that’s a pretty small town and you can discover it easily in a few hours. I always suggest Café Breizh for the best galettes and crepes in France. They grow their own varietal of serrasin on a farm near Cancale - they have locations throughout France and quite a few to choose from in Paris. But the Cancale location is original and, of course, serves Cancale oysters.

    why season everything with these vinegary shallots ? you put far too much of it in the oyster! "we" "calm" the vinegar with a "gloups" of dry white wine (Muscadet). Crab and langoustines are eaten mostly with a french freshly made mayonnaise, and the little grey shrimpies with bread (a baguette will do) and local Briton salted butter.
