Enjoy some fresh French cuisine at a festival near Paris this winter

Eat well at this tasty event!
If travellers don't get enough turkey during their Thanksgiving festivities, they will have another chance at a feast while visiting Licques, a small town in the north of France, this December. Every year, the region celebrates the festivities with a fun and traditional event called the Turkey Festival. This could be a unique way for travelers to immerse themselves into the French culture and countryside on an unforgettable European vacation.

The event is hosted by the Licques turkey farm, which has been throwing this exciting feast for more than two decades, according to the company’s website. For the past ten years, the festival has taken place over the course of three days, featuring dinners, traditional dances and an informal parade of turkeys that is corralled down the town streets.

After filling up on tasty turkey, travelers can journey to Paris to get a feel for France's urban life. According to Fodor’s, travelers can continue the theme of French cuisine by having an elegant meal at Beniot, which has been a city staple for generations. Classic dishes on the menu include delicious frogs’ legs in a mushroom cream sauce.
