Food
The culinary heart of Angoulême (which is about 120km north-east of Bordeaux in western France) is the grand 19th-century Marché des Halles, a covered market showcasing regional produce – cheese, foie gras, organic vegetables, shellfish – with streetfood-style diners offering seafood platters, duck magret, artisan pâté and sausages. It has come back to life over recent years and everyone meets up here at the weekend.
