Every year a French gastronomic fair is organized in Plaza Francia in the Recoleta neighborhood. This is one of the most beautiful squares in the city and has an extensive natural space that people visit frequently. I have been to last year's fair and also this year's without planning it, it was really by chance that I passed by the place and came across this. It's always a good opportunity to see what's new, try different dishes and have a good time.

This is another of the museums in the Recoleta neighborhood, there are mostly attractions for kids.

I shared an article last year about this same fair, not only are there gourmet food stands but they also have talks and live music. I remember having enjoyed some very talented local bands but on this occasion I couldn't stay until I saw the new or different groups. We stopped by for a few minutes and tried some sandwiches and a couple of desserts.

This was one of my favorite stands. Lots of melted cheese and crepes of all kinds.

Some of the girls who worked on the preparation of the dishes.

Look at that melted cheese, we bought one of those 😋

There were long lines to buy at any of the stands, many people interested in this fair as usually happens every year.

They were installing the equipment on the stage for the live groups and I took photos of many of these dishes on display.

At this fair you always feel very good vibes, very good for meeting people and sharing a common moment. There are no chairs, no tables, you have to go from stand to stand trying the dishes that interest you. If you want to sit down to eat and enjoy your meal you can do it on the grass, so you make your own picnic with gourmet French food.

The fair offers different dishes ranging from charcuterie, sandwiches, breads, stands of sweets such as chocolates, coffee, teas and more.

I also took some photos of some signs, the monument that is in Plaza Francia and the surrounding area :)
