Join us for a unique experience in "the belly of Toulouse" - the Marché Victor Hugo, Toulouse's largest covered market!
You'll soon be eating your way through market staples like chocolatines (NOT pain au chocolate!), traditional baguettes, the only farm-to-counter foie gras in the market, cheese from a fromager-affineur (and learning what those words mean!), some of the best charcuterie in Toulouse, and more.
Some items we'll taste immediately, but others go into my basket for our final destination: a specially-reserved "tonneau" at a wine seller in the market, where we'll pair our finds with local wines made from obscure grape varieties. We finish on a sweet note with some locally-produced dessert. No need for lunch afterwards!
Along the way, you’ll learn about food and market history, get tips for finding the best products, cultural lessons (French toasting etiquette, anyone?), and context for what you’re tasting. When it's over, you'll get an email listing where we went and what we tasted, as well as any special recommendations you asked for.
Other things to note:
We'll be eating on our feet, no seating!
Please alert me at least 24 hours in advance if you have food allergies or don't drink alcohol.
Open-minded vegetarians can get by, but not vegans.
Due to the high cost of providing a solo tour, we require a minimum of 2 people in order to be able to run a tour.
