One of our recent guests recommended paying a visit to Port Leucate to sample some of the local oysters and sea food platters (served from a series of sheds / restaurants located right next to where they land the local catch !). We have not managed to do this yet ... but certainly will.
In the meantime we hear that there are fantastic oysters and other seafood available at the local markets in Port Argeles on several days of the week.
When we were at Villa Failte in late June we cheated and went to the local Intermarche ... impressive array of fresh fish ! ... where we bought a load of fresh oysters along with the essential fresh lemons and tabasco sauce. All I can really add is that, as well as being the largest oysters we have ever eaten, they were simply delicious ... served on a plate of ice and eaten that evening out in the Summer Kitchen. Fab !
