Les Halles is the local fresh cheese, fruit, vegetable fish, and meat market in Pau. I love…read moreshopping here because everything is fresh from the farmers, you can get a poultry, meats of all type, vegetables, fruits, and flowers. if you are a Pau, you have to go. Some vendors in side of the building will take credit cards but not all of them, so bring cash with you and lots of small change as this is the preferred method of payment. The market is currently under construction (May 2017) with plans to have a three storey building completed sometime in 2018 it will be huge and very very lovely so don't let the construction site turn you away. The market is divided in about three different sections on a Saturday only, they have fresh produce across the street from the market. Monday - Friday two sections are open, fresh produce is behind the building. Everything is seasonal so some things you may not be able to find but just look around you'll find something you want. The market is most crowded in the morning, Don't let the crowd discourage you. The vendors are very friendly they will let you taste some items depending on what it is.

Held every Sunday in the beautiful medieval town of Issigeac, this is a typical Perigord market…read morewith lots of shopping options, including food. It stretches throughout the old city center - centre ville and, curves through the laneways of this beautiful town. I have always loved the markets around France and this one is special as it's historic and there is about 200 vendors or more there. You get everything from fashion to food. A handful of people selling local fresh produce, truffles, foie gras and lots of cooked food like cakes and BBQ meats. Go early as it got really busy after 11am. Until then it was nice and quiet and the stalls were letting you sample all their foods. The highlight for me was the oyster man - 6 oysters for €5 and they were huge. I just stood there at the shop and ate them :-) lots of people were amused :-) The heirloom tomatoes I bought here were some of the sweetest I have ever tasted....yummmm, not to mention the figs stuffed with foie gras, unbelievable ;-)) I would come here in a heartbeat. It's a gorgeous market in beautiful settings.

I came here on a Saturday morning. I prefer these kind of old school markets instead of the new…read morefood halls that have started opening. The locals come here and it's definitely not touristy. The produce vendors are here early at 6:00 AM but the food stands don't open until at least 8:00 AM. There's also flowers, clothing, baked goods, fishmongers, cheesemongers, and butchers. I wish I could eat seafood in the morning since the Cap Ferret oysters did look good. Instead, I went to the crepe stand. My friend and I ordered a citron crepe and a sausage galette. The crepe and galette were made to order and delicious. The savory sausage galette had a creamy mustard sauce with fresh chives so it was amazing. I wish I could eat more (such problems I have) so I'll definitely have to come back!

This Sunday market has the best of fresh food and drink from all around the region - cheese, fruit,…read morefresh baked bread, vegetables, wine, meat and fish - and a huge range of non-food items as well. It is located throughout the town centre, and walking around it takes at least an hour without stopping to buy anything. Park by the Aveyron and cross the bridge into town and you can't miss the start of the market. It spreads throughout the town, with only a tiny fraction located in the market hall itself, and despite the number of small dogs and pushchairs around it's fairly easy to navigate, although you may have to push a little to get near the most popular stalls. Many stallholders speak a little English (or are ex-pats) but all appreciate it if you make an attempt to order in French first!

When we were looking at properties listed in purefrance.com for a week's stay to celebrate our 10th…read moreyear wedding anniversary with family and friends, we decided to limit our search to the Dordogne and Southwest France region. We really wanted to do some wine tasting in Bordeaux, so this was the region for that. We found a large country house 5 minutes from Montréal that would be big enough for our group of 12. Like many of the medieval and fortified villages in the area, Montréal is situated on top of a hill, with a small square in the middle of the town, a cathedral and a great view of the grape vines and wheat field below. Though small, it will meet most of your needs. It has an Avia petrol station, a small Proxi grocery store, a hotel, a bank, a boucherie, a boulangerie/patisserie, a café, and a few restaurants. On Fridays, there is a small farmers market under the arcades by the square. You can buy all sorts of vegetables and fruits from local farmers, and rotisserie chicken, escargot, grilled sausages and ribs from The Poulet Roti vendor. There is also fromagerie that sells all kinds of artisanal cheese from the Pyrenees region. On Sundays, you will find a flea market at the square, and a few food vendors--the Poulet Roti and a gentleman who sells crêpes with Nutella and Grand Marnier for under 2€ each. He also makes churros as he's from Spain. The local restaurants are open too! If you're in the area, visit this beautiful little village and be transported in time!
