Welsh alors ? is a food festival evening held in Montpellier, in the Occitania region of southern France. It takes place at Halle Tropisme, a venue in the city, and is part of the 'Jeudi Foodisme' series of food evenings, which gives it a relaxed, convivial character built around eating together.
What the evening offers
The theme is the flavors of the North of France. The menu features typical northern dishes, so guests can try regional specialities for the first time or rediscover ones they already know. For a visitor who has spent time in Occitania's warmer, Mediterranean kitchen, it makes a pleasant change of palate.
The organizers have a playful streak. They joke that you might leave the evening with a Northern-style 'hein' slipping into your sentences, a light nod to the regional speech that gives the event its name.
Why visit
- A Thursday evening out focused on food and conversation
- A chance to taste northern French cooking without travelling north
- A good fit for anyone already curious about the 'Jeudi Foodisme' programme
Halle Tropisme is a venue in Montpellier, so the evening is easy to combine with an exploration of the city itself, whose streets and cafés offer plenty to do before or after dinner.
