De France : Random #7

Oysters from the cool, fresh waters of France. Deep in the neighborhood of Gros, a simple storefront. Inside, it stinks of good cheese. Good AOC, high-quality French cheese. Conserves of black cherry and white tuna line the walls.

This random picture selection thing REALLY doesn't seem to be that random, seeing as I "refound" this store last week. The lovely cheesemonger behind the counter directed me to some delicious Brie, squealed with glee along with me as we spoke about creme fraiche, and co-lamented the total misunderstando of the term 'queso fresco' in Basque Country.

Passersby deep in the neighborhood of Gros will notice some makeshift tables in front of a tiny store.  If they stop, on top of these tables, they will see some wooden boxes full of oysters, fresh from the sea. Every weekend, from thursday to sunday), these oysters arrive from Herve, a purveyor from Arcachon. They are delicious accompanied by a mignonette or with just a few drops of lemon juice. The store also sells cheese and preserves. If you leave not just with oysters but also with a cherry marmalade and butter from Savoya, you'll leave happy. Luxueux.
