Fruits de mer
Phil invited us over for Sunday lunch. He ordered a boatload of seafood from the market and went to pick it up when we came by. Everything came arranged on a bed of seaweed on the polystyrene boat - shucked oysters, shrimp with heads and legs, crawdads with pincers, sea snails (boulot) and tiny krill-like shrimp you think are more trouble than they are worth (but they aren't). He served a chilled Sancerre with the seafood.
After lunch, he took us on a tour of the neighborhood. Above his cave is a nice walk with more troglodyte caves. We met some of his neighbors and took in the views across the valley. A very pleasant way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
