· 3.00h · Bordeaux, France

One day in Bordeaux and you’re not eating at Marché des Capucins? Amateur move. This is the city’s belly button: overflowing with oysters that demand champagne, cheeses that could start wars, and pastries you’ll probably dream about for weeks. And the wine? Flowing like the Garonne on a rainy day. Sure, kings and revolutionaries strutted through here once, but today it’s your turn to conquer the market. Skip the guidebook, this is Bordeaux turned up to 11, one bite (and sip) at a time.

Kick Things Off With a Chocolatine

We’re starting sweet, because why not? Your first stop is a local boulangerie where chocolatine is king. Flaky, buttery, and just enough chocolate to make you forget you promised yourself you’d “eat light on vacation.”

Markets, Meats, Oysters and Cheese, Please

Bordeaux’s market is where the real fun begins. You’ll nibble on charcuterie so good you’ll wonder why you ever settled for supermarket ham, sip white wine with Arcachon Bay oysters that practically flirt with you, and dive into gooey French cheeses that’ll make you question your lactose tolerance. Oyster-phobic? Relax, we’ve got tasty backup options.

Pour Decisions Await

This is Bordeaux, so of course the grand finale is wine. Legendary, bold, and made by people who have probably been stomping grapes since before your great-great-grandparents were born. You’ll taste, swirl, and pretend to know your tannins while secretly just enjoying the buzz.
