When you see “Taureau” on the menu…
We arrived in Southern France last Friday and we’ve been visiting some interesting cities. On Sunday we spent some time in Nimes which has a huge Roman arena. It is supposedly the best preserved of all the Roman arenas. They still have bull fights there now. After our touring the city we went into one of those open air bistros and I ordered the special of the day: Taureau. It actually was very good and tasted alot like steak (maybe close to Omaha steaks) but it was “Bull”. There was a local merlot that they recommended and that went down very well too. Our next trip will be to Arles where they are known for “donkey”. I may have to pass on that.

Come on, give it the old college try.
In Arles, their famous “saucisson” is made from Dunkey; if you ate it you’ll be on the sh… list with Barb!
