The north coast of France means seafood to me, a place to enjoy the freshness seasonal catch, at the moment is scallop. 

Went to this fishing port Port en Bessin Huppain, where a lot of scallop dredging boats are stationed. Scallop dredging in France is very well regulated, boats are given specific dates, hours and location to work, managed so that it is a sustainable harvest.

This is the place for a feast of scallops, Le Bistro d’a Cote, Port-en-Bessin-Huppain, Normandy France.

I had raw scallop, served with salad and a little sprinkle of zesty finger lime.

Cooked scallops were hot seared outside and still translucent inside, the best cooking degree, with an assortment of seasonal vegetables, perfect meal!
