Terrasson

Tatiana has two weeks off for Easter so we decided to go to Sarlat. It is an hour and a half drive from us. We stopped for lunch in the town of Terrasson.

We had lunch in this cute mill house

Sarlat

Sarlat-la-Canéda,

The town of Sarlat is in a region known in France as the Périgord Noir. The Périgord is known for its walnuts, fois gras and Bergerac wine.


Sarlat is a medieval town that developed around a large Benedictine abbey of Carolingian origin. The medieval Sarlat Catherdral is dedicated to Saint Sacerdos.

Sarlat is one of the most attractive and alluring towns in southwestern France.
Several Hollywood movies were shot here.
I must say it is worth the visit.

Went to this restaurant recommended to us by our hotel. Steaks brought on a steaming hot piece of slate. You cook it to your liking. Was the most tender meat we have ever had!
