Clermont - Ferrand - Eating
The region’s natural resources have generated top-quality ingredients for the local cuisine. The rich pasturelands provide the highest-grade beef and lamb for consumption. A regional ham, Jambon d’Auvergne, and various pork sausages are also available fresh from local pig farms. Rivers and lakes also contribute to a wide variety of fish. Cow’s milk provides some of the best cheeses and local desserts are mainly pastries and fruit pies. You’ll find everything in town among a large range of great venues!
