Mediterranean groceries Normandy

Feel like Italy on your plate? Head for this renowned caterer, located near the Place du Vieux-Marché or in Isneauville. The shop offers many gourmet products: Parma or San Daniele hams, fresh pasta, take-away pizzas, cheeses, olive oils, wines, cold meats, cakes, sweets... There is also a large choice of home-made dishes to enjoy at home such as risotto, lasagne, cannelloni, pasta salads, fish and vegetable terrines... For dessert, you can choose between tiramisu, Italian macaroons or a delicious homemade panna cotta. Elaborated daily by a renowned Chef, the recipes are made in the respect of Mediterranean traditions. A delight!

In the centre of Caen, this house is a window on Italy and its delights since 1982. Passionate about cooking, the brother works (almost day and night) in the kitchen upstairs, where we had the privilege of smelling the sweet smell of simmering sauces. While the sister welcomes you behind a counter that almost makes you want to buy everything. The Botte, from north to south, is worthily represented: fresh pasta, hams, Abruzzo salami, cheeses, olive oils, wines and other specialities. A key word: authenticity.

A must in the Vieux-Marché district for the first store, and in the Saint-Marc district for the second. This Lebanese delicatessen is probably the best in Rouen with its cold mezze (vine leaves, peppers stuffed with fresh cheese, eggplant caviar, hummus...), its hot dishes such as turnovers filled with meat or candied spinach, and its tasty oriental pastries with honey and orange blossom accents. One can only enjoy savoring all the dishes based on coriander, mint, parsley and spices...
