Oysters in Bayonne


Suddenly got this oyster craving.... go to Arcachon.... too far... let's try Bayonne. Didn't really know where to find oysters but intuition guided us to the market place (les halles) and !!!! of course, Bistrot de l'huître was the place to go! Pascal had Gillardeau oysters, considered the Rolls Royce of Oysters and truly they were excellent....

This is the best time for oysters. I love eating things in season... enjoy something fully for a short period of time and then let go. Spend the time out of season thinking about oysters... longing for them and then rediscover them again. Can be oysters or asparagus or strawberries or whatever....

We then walked around in a Sunday closed Bayonne before heading back home again.

Outside the restaurant....



Talaia, a new restaurant in the centre. Have to try it out some day.
