Wednesday Market

Marche de Mecredi Matin
"The most famous market once in a week"

We grabbed this great opportunity to see the look of the Wednesday market here in Poitiers with our friend Mr Liew...Actually he is the one who had introduced the market to us..
He said that ,we can get the lots of asian products here such as 'sawi','telur masin','ikan bilis ' and many more..

Handbags

It took 15 minutes to be here from our home...

Fresh Starwberries
with just 4 euro per kg


Cherries Season
4-5 euro per kg


The escargots
(snails)


The french people love to eat the escargots..
Do you dare to eat it!?
In France, escargots are typically only eaten on festive occasions..
Typically, the snails are removed from their shells, gutted, cooked (usually with garlic butter), and then poured back into the shells together with the butter and sauce for serving, often on a plate with several shell-sized depressions.

I heard that there are 'halal' escargots in Brunei..


Very cheap..6 euro per kg
Do you want some?


The asian products of food

You can find 'belacan','sambal olek',kuetiow,dried laksa,maggi mee,
and others too..


It is easy to find the asian produts of food here in France


The Spring Potatoes

We can only find these kind of potatoes during spring season..
Nice taste and best to be eaten after boiled


Artichaut

Great to be cook with mutton..Cut the artichaut into 4 parts..Mix it with the mutton,onion and other vegetables..
Also best to be eaten raw with salt..It can also be made into an herbal tea..

Rasa seperti jantung pisang..

Vegetables and flowers plants


Holland 'Terompah'
28 euro

Some people like to make it as decoration..

'Boleh jadikan ia sebagai pasu gubahan bunga..'



Say...CHEESE

There are lots of them in France and one of their food specialite..
France produces almost 400 different varieties of cheese, each one is as distinctive as a finger print.
Each region has its specialty — Normandy, France’s kingdom of milk and cream, is famous for unctuous Camembert and Pont l’Evêque; the Loire Valley and Provence for the tangy goat’s milk cheeses; Alsace for robust Munster; the Alpine region for firmer, subtly-flavored cheeses, such as Reblochon and Beaumont; the Paris area for the world’s most prestigious cheese, Brie — even from the Pyrénées comes Chiberta, firm, slightly nutty- flavored, a specialty of which the hardy Basque people are proud.



Durian
7 euro per kg!

Most of it came from Thailand...
'Ingat nak beli tapi tahan je la..
Makan puas-puas kat Malaysia nanti ye tak..'


ok..till my next entry..'La fete de la mer in La Rochelle'
Tunggu......
