I have been looking at the beautiful flowers for sale at our local food market in Rennes. This is a beautiful city and despite being the capital of Brittany, has a surprising local feel about it. It is small enough to let yourself go and get lost among the amazing old cobbled streets with their charming medieval houses but big enough to have some wonderful places to go and see like the Opera House or the Parliament Building or indeed the old food market where the attached pictures were taken.
The best time to visit the food market is early on a Saturday morning. It is possible to park underneath the market and simply take a lift up to street level. We bring our cooking students along here to see the wide variety of seafood, fish, fruit, salads, vegetables, herbs and meats available as well as cheeses, jams, cakes and bread and lots more besides.
