Quatorze Julliet

Flea markets, performances, singing competitions and entertainment form the backdrop of France during the day. In the evenings, every city or village will get your feet rolling with traditional French (accordion) music. If you travel through the country tonight you will see grand fireworks everywhere, which traditionally closes July 14th. A beautiful panorama!

Gastronomy

French cuisine is known for its culinary delights and Burgundian food. It is even the most famous cuisine in the world! Think of the quiche lorraine, the baguette and the fish soup bouillabaisse. Crepes are also a real treat. But have you ever tasted a real Breton galette? This is a pancake made from buckwheat flour with all kinds of tasty ingredients in the middle. If you order a galette sucrée, you will receive one topped with sweets and fresh fruit. Prefer something savory? Then take the galette salée, topped with meat and vegetables, for example, but the one with 'fruits de mer' is also not to be missed. Bon appétit!
