Today we are taking Grammy & Pappy to their hotel in Toulouse so they can catch their flight tomorrow. It seems like a perfect time for a group trip to introduce Adam, Renee & Annika to the Victor Hugo market.
The trip is coming to an end with Grammy & Pappy's departure.;( But we will have some 'market fun' before they go!
We parked in the impossibly compact parking garage and headed down to the market. This is truly an amazing market and I am never disappointed when we stop here. The only issue is that we don't have enough days left to prepare/eat the food we are surrounded by.

After a few small purchases we couldn't refuse - frommage, saucisson Toulouse, pastries, we headed upstairs for a treat for lunch. Above the Victor Hugo market is a long & narrow area with 6 different restaurants specializing in different aspects of the market - beef, fish, Toulouse specialties, etc. We opted for the fish restaurant, Plancha de Poissons. There was quite an assortment of grilled fish and seafood specialties with the staple classic dishes.
