Market Day in Sarlat

We arrived late morning to the Sarlat market, which had been billed as the best market in Perigord.  It was certainly bigger than St. Cyprien, but was also considerably more touristy, with fewer fresh food vendors.  However, it was a gorgeous day and walking around the market in such a beautiful medieval setting was perfect.  This was probably the most people we'd seen in the last 5 days!

After foie gras, the next most common item sold were sausages.  I guess they have to make something with the rest of those geese and ducks!  Some of the variations above were sausages with mushrooms and sausages with walnuts.

I especially like these sausages pictured below - made to look like big chunks of truffles!  Incidentally, we missed truffle season by a month.  Maybe next time...

We didn't buy too much fresh food, but I was once again tempted by the asparagus.
