Another great attraction for me is that one of the food outlets near the covered market sells chip baguettes, and the mayonnaise is home made. I've no doubt that the gastronomes among you will gasp at the idea but it is legal and you don't have to be 18 to enjoy it, it is however an advantage to be completely starving before tucking in. If you stand with your back to the plaque over the market entrance in the square and look towards three O'clock the blue fronted kiosk is the one you want. If you are shy the French sounds like (I hate grammar so I can only say it sounds like this) 'Une baguette avec les frites dadon, sil vous plez' While you are there Fecamp (Benedictine distillery) and Honfleur are well worth a visit (inland harbour famous for artists).
