CHARCUTERIE, VEGETABLES, FISH and BEER

Amazing food. The best fish shop - La Halle in Dunkerque.

Fish - Lots

And the best vegetable shop Le Jardin d'Eden in Dunkerque, potimarrons for €1. Great soup.

OK what are they and what do you do with them?

Best for last and overall winner so far the Boucherie Charcuterie in Les Attaques - Fabrice Matringhem.  Les Attaques nothing to write home about and I wonder why we stopped. We did and found the charcuterie with an abundance of award winning terrines, hams and a long....... queue. We bought Terrine de foie de lapin aux pruneaux (rabbit liver, smoked ham and prune pate). Doesn't come any better and their smoked jambon was exquisite.

Beer, the most important. Being near Belgium lots of Trapiste beers, getting into Grimbergen Blond and for Margaret - Belzeebuth, a little devil of a beer.

And for those of you with a special place for cheese, Père Joseph.
