MARCHÉ COUVERT

Another city, another Marché. Or have I said that before. Metz does not disappoint on the Saturday market. It's big both inside and especially outside all around the cathedral and surrounding streets.

Orange cake, Colormbey cake plus others.

There is a meat stall in the covered market. Well when I say a stall I say that as it is in the market but it's huge and is more of an industry selling meat to the public and obviously supplying meat to Metz's many restaurants. It is jam packed with customers and whilst it's hard to count as the stall is so big and busy I counted 40+ staff! They must get through a lot of meat.

Fresh garlic.

Quiche and Tart Lorraine plus Torteau Fromage.

A new cheese!! Bouyguette. A goats cheese.

I thought we needed a new cheese on the blog, we haven't had one for a while. Which reminds me of a quote by Charles de Gaulle: "How can you expect to govern a country that has two hundred and forty six kinds of cheese".
