Bed and breakfast in Leucate

Port-Leucate: local produce

We sometimes take advantage of our holidays to engage in sporting activities and try to regain a slim figure. You'll no doubt find it hard to go on a diet in Port-Leucate, so appetising is its cuisine. To get you through lunch, there's nothing like an anchoïade, the quintessential Mediterranean aperitif! You'll then be treated to some incredibly tasty dishes. Catalan salad comes to mind, as does squid à la Romaine, if you're a fan of seafood. Restaurant menus feature dishes as rich as they are exquisite, such as raw beef tartare or duck breast with Banyuls. If you prefer fish-based culinary specialities, succumb to sardines grilled a la plancha or delicious pan-fried cod. Port-Leucate and the Aude also boast renowned wine-growing regions. As a result, you'll be spoilt for choice when it comes to pairing your dishes. AOP Corbières and Côtes du Roussillon rosés are a big hit, as are AOP Minervois reds. Got a bit of appetite left at the end of the meal? You'll love the apple crumble or the Curbelet, a grooved waffle that can be flavoured with vanilla, lemon or orange blossom.
