Day 8 – May 11, 2013 – Market Day in Coutainville

Today, we ventured out to experience market day in Coutainville.  We drove out and found where the market was being held.  Market days are a cross between a farmer’s market and a flea market.  The one in Coutainville is small with about 25-35 vendors, selling anything from fresh fruits and veggies, to rotisserie chicken, cured sausages, fresh seafood, to shoes, clothing and household items.

We started by walking through all the booths to get a sense of what the vendors had for sale and then we decided we’d pick up dinner for the evening: a rotisserie cooked chicken, some hot and fresh paella and some green beans.  After purchasing dinner we drove over to Agon-Coutainville an had fresh made thin crust pizza that had a thin and tender crust and nice cheese and toppings.  Peter had one with sausage and mine had smoked salmon with a cream sauce…it was heavenly…then back home with our feast…the car smelt so good!

Bonne nuit!!!!
