"MAISON GOSSELIN"

Almost any time of day during the season, as you wander round this magnificent épicerie in Rue de Verrüe, you will overhear english voices discussing wine labels, cheeses and blends of coffee as they push their shopping trolleys round the most famous grocers in Normandy-visiting boaters know just where to come for some provisioning. Founded in 1889 by Clovis Gosselin and run until a few years ago by his grandson Maurice, the shop now has fourth generation involved. Maurice Gosselin's daughter Françoise and her husband Bertrand Besselievre, together with a staff of 18, are on hand to give friendly advice about thier vast range of food and drink, most of which bears the Gosselin label.
Specialities include a bottle of 1900 rareté Lemorton Calvados (at a price), a Cadenhead's cask-stregth single malt whysky from an Orkney ditillery, and a 12-year old 74% rum from Barbados. Wine buffs will be swooning over the choice. Event he bread is special, cooked in oak-burning ovens. Deliveries are made to boats in the marina, and at weekends they use their famous replica of a Ford T van.
