Bordeaux has several distinctive flavors.  There you can try eel fricassee, served with the flavors of lightly browned garlic and parsley intermingled, or shad fished from the river between April and June, and traditionally grilled over vine twigs.  Bordeaux has delicious purple and green asparagus, which goes lovely with cep mushrooms, gently cookid with chopped garlic and parsley.
