BIRTH PLACE

by viny32 - last update: Mar 19, 2004

Castle (citée)

outside view

Carcassonne is not a so great town by its own, but when you get out of the downtown and you go to the 'castle' (citée in french) that so great. I'm nott living in carcassonne anymore, but anytime I come back there (it's not so fare), it's so sgreat to re-discover this citée ...
As you want ... have a walk outside, inside (not necessary to go deep inside, just inside it's great and free!)
You can have a typical lunch or diner inside.
During the summer, it's a mess, to many people around during the day, but at night ... it's so nice to have a drink (or 2!).
The best time to visit are:
June (nice weather, and no jam)
September (same)
Durinf the winter it can be nice (cold but nice)
inside

Great restaurant close to Caracassonne inside

Ok, 2 cases:
-you're french, you surely like french food! you can't miss this restaurant!
- you're not french, discover our typical food in this restaurant!

Chateau de cavanac
(I'll but the address soon), for more information contact me (I'm not the chief or the owner of this restaurant, but I can say it's really great!!!)
Check out the pics!
Fois Gras

salade de foie gras hummmmm my favorite!

Delicious!
