Plateau de fruits de mer, which translates to a plate of fruits of the sea, is a traditional French dish that consists of various kinds of seafood served on a platter, usually over crushed ice. Typical seafood used in this dish includes a variety of shellfish such as shrimps, mussels, lobsters, crabs, clams, and oysters that can either be cooked or raw.

A bountiful table.

Lunch is ready!

A quick selfie before sitting down for lunch.

To a great lunch!

I was a lovely day and perfect for sitting outside for lunch.

Alex and Charlot enjoying the pool on a hot day.  On the right Hoa and Christopher having a beer.

We had a late and copious lunch so we were not very hungry and nobody wanted to eat out so we decided to have dinner at home instead.

It was really nice and relax.
