The selected 'tasty spot' is the area around "Mont Saint-Michel" in France. More specific, the pastureland around the estuary of the Mont Saint-Michel. |
De bay and landscape around Mont-Saint-Michel is very much shaped by the tides. Big parts are frequently flooded by the sea and form tidal marshes. As a result, it is a heaven for halophytes or plants living in salinity. |

This area is the pastureland for sheep and cows for
centuries. They feast on the saline vegetation. As a result, it makes
their meat salty too. This type of meat is called
"pré-salé". |
| You
can tast this delicious meat in a number of restaurants near the bay. A
famous one where you can try thsi meat is the
restaurant "Pré Salé", near the entrance
to Mont Saint Michel. |
