Fête de la coquille Saint-Jacques à Montmartre 2025

 

This past weekend I went to the Fête de la coquille Saint-Jacques à Montmartre , always held next to Metro Abbesses.

Two days in a row! An absolute first time for me.

Rosemary decided to celebrate 🎉 her birthday 🎂 at the fête 🥳 on Saturday. What a good idea! 

They have a nice little park right there, where you can sit down, eat your oysters 🦪 

Or scallops

Drink champagne 🥂 🍾 What a nice Champagne it was too.

What if you’re not mad about oysters 🦪 ?

Or Escargot 🐌 

Or even seafood 🦞!?

This is a BRITTANY fair, so lots of goodies like cookies, 

Kouign Amann, Canelé, crêpes, chocolate. 

You can sign on for a balade boat 🚤 trip in Brittany

I will never forget the balade I once took in Étretat…Yikes 😰

I am a big fan of Brittany hot, spiced apple 🍎 juice. Yum Yum

Solli & I always go on Sunday and Julia joined us (her first time).

I know…my hair looks white. Yes, I washed it with dish washing liquid & stripped it 😵‍💫 😱 🤣

After we stuffed ourselves, Julia gave us mini tour of l'église Saint-Pierre de Montmartre, a modern Arte Nouveau church built between 1894-1904.

Later I past the Brittany band on rue Lepic heading to the fête. The drizzle started.

And right past by Amélie’s cafe.

I hope if you're ever in Paris end of January, you will join us for oysters 🦪 or whatever ❤️
