FRANCE HOLIDAY PART 3 | A NEOLITHIC DOLMEN AND LA ROCHE L'ABEILLE VILLAGE
In part 3 of my series documenting my family holiday in France, I explore a Neolithic (Stone Age) Dolmen on the outskirts of a tiny village called La Roche L' Abeille. There are loads of these dotted all over the world, this being the second time I have explored one myself, the first being Kitt's Coty House in Kent.
We then drove into the village for a wander around to explore, including the parish church and stopped for a drink in the local cafe/ bar. Once again, the weather was lovely, perhaps a little too hot at times!

Discover France's Regions - Best of Charolais, Normandy and Gascony
A journey through three French regions with their typical specialities.
From our playlist Culinary Journeys:
00:00 The charolais in Burgundy is famous for its beef breed, but being a part of Burgundy it is full of traditional French specialities, like the Charolais cattle, that are well-known for their flavor and tender texture.
03:15 When travelling through the Normandy, don't forget to taste camembert. Dairy products are such an integral part of the region that even the towns carry the names of famous cheeses. In the Pays d’Auge, apples grow in abundance and are used to make delicacies like sparkling apple wine, cider, and calvados.
06:48 The market of Peyrehorade in Gascony is popular for its pig’s trotters, already available for breakfast at 7 am. Here in the southwest of France every village has its bullfighting arena, a place where acrobatic and non-violent performances with cows are celebrated, known as Course Landaise.

Le Marché de Saint-Denis (FRANCE)

The Saint-Denis greenmarket, outside Paris (métro: line 13, BASILIQUE) is one of the largest in Europe and dates back to the Dark Ages, when the city was walled to protect from Barbarian invasion.
Arguably the first capital of France before Paris, Saint-Denis has a vast greenmarket indoors and outside three mornings per week: Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays. Though not as cheap as the market in nearby Stains, this one is darned good and the vendors do compete fiercely with prices and quality. In most cases, you can meet the families directly who produce the produce and on Tuesdays, which are much quieter, ask some questions.
I'd been to Mass in the Basilica so was here during an impossibly busy time, but I still had fun buying raw milk and pheasants. There's a lot more than just food in the market. If you need tools, utensils, fabrics, notions, an upholsterer or clothing and supplies, you will likely find them here. Eat something before you visit -- the place can bring on vertigo.
I recommend a visit here if you're visiting Paris. Carry something to carry away your treasures in, whether it's ready-made food for picnics on your trip, or nice gifts to take back (in the adjacent commercial center, right by one of the market's edges, someone sells sacks, caddies, suitcases and various types of bags at remarkably low prices -- they've been there for years and years). Most of the stores in the city stay open on Sundays, too, at least in the morning. (Mondays are generally closed in Saint-Denis.) Since Sunday is the closed day in Paris, you might want to see a Mass at 10 am in the basilica, then explore the market before going for a long Sunday lunch -- a tradition in France. There are some elegant restaurants in Saint-Denis (I can think of one by the Basilica, LES METS DU ROY) and generally, almost everything here is half the price of Paris.
I passed one of five or six fishmongers in this market and was wandering around looking for pheasant. (I did find some and ended up with three for five euros.) I had my own container so got raw milk (50 eurocents for half a liter and I'd brought my own container, which was necessary). After 20 years in France I still find understanding the vendors in the hubbub difficult so I just kind of stumble through it. Their rapid-fire, slangy Parisian French at full shout range often baffles me. I just try to keep my stuff together and pay attention, keep a sense of humor.
I am pointing the camera down a lot because people don't appreciate being video'd. The grungy, huge market in Stains which is even cheaper is even more unfit to video -- I can try in the future, but I have to be careful. I don't want an altercation, which would very likely just be verbal, but I'd rather avoid that.
My spouse is tired of Saint-Denis (over 80 languages are spoken here daily) but unhappily admits his native Paris, which has lower taxes (!) and better services (and not all of Paris is lovely and tidy, mind you, nor good/safe), could not compete with the food prices we get in these parts. That counts for quite a bit.
