It’s The St Lary Pig Festival
It’s The St Lary Pig Festival
Published : 25-Jan-2014 10:34
Although Klosters have their annual piglet race every New Year, there is a lamentable lack of pig related events in Europe's ski areas each winter.
But that error in planning is to be put right in the French Pyrenees this Saturday, 25th January 2014, at the ski resort of St Lary (saintlary.com) where a festival to celebrate the famous black pigs – or 'Porc Noir de Bigorre' will take place.
Various workshops will be taking place during the morning (10am-1pm) with farmers showing their traditional working techniques and introduction to the Porc Noir de Bigorre.
Saint-Lary and the valley d'Aure are famous for the Porc Noir de Bigorre – it's a high quality product.
Then, the day will continue around a banquet with meals unsurprisingly based on the Porc Noir de Bigorre and on in to the evening, the menus in the village's restaurants will be adapted to the theme of the festival with special menus / tapas with Porc Noir de Bigorre.
