Duck breast, meanwhile, is an explosion of flavours that literally melts in your mouth. And how can you miss the famous cassoulet, the emblematic dish that epitomises the culinary savoir-faire of the South-West?

For the more curious, pétéram is a local speciality made from sheep offal, a culinary discovery for the adventurous. Finally, let yourself be seduced by the sweetness of the pistachio, often used in desserts, which adds a subtle sweet touch to the end of a meal.
