Anyone who knows me know how passionate about food and good wine I am. I suppose given my size its not hard to guess.
But ive just been to Toulouse for the weekend and spent the morning salivating in the victor hugo market hall which ranks as one of the best I've ever experienced
The whole atmos and sense of community was something we just dont have the equal of.
Coffees and the best croissant ever first thing. Every seat was taken in every restaurant at lunchtime. The market hall was a sheer buzz of excitement and gastronomic splendour for me.
The meat fruit bread veg coffee fish were all world class with a seemingly infinite choice of each.
The service was wonderfully cheerful.
Dining on oysters, matinated 9-10cm prawns, crudités, charcuterie and cheeses washed down with Tarouquet white wine whilst talking rugby with all n sundry was a fabulous experience.
Highly recommended to any visitor ofthis wonderful city i giveyou one of my food heros..... the victor hugo market.
