Free tastings of Normandy scallops are back on November 1 and 2, 2025! Head to Bercy Village to discover seafood from our coasts and, why not, learn a few recipes from professionals in preparation for the holiday season!

We all know that fish, seafood, and scallops are key ingredients on Christmas and New Year's tables . Now that scallop season is open, they're the stars of the Fish Truck, which will be setting up shop at Bercy Village on November 1 and 2 for the Grande Débarque!

Inside this small pop-up fishmonger's, there will be free tastings as well as demonstrationsto help you cook these Normandy scallops, freshly caught and landed from the Normandy ports of Dieppe, Granville, Fécamp, Cherbourg, and Port-en-Bessin. 

Tempted? Then head to Bercy Village on Saturday, November 1 from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sunday, November 2 from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. as well, for a fun program of games, activities, and free tastings! It's also a great opportunity to introduce your children to this wonderful seafood product!

While this operation is great fun for the taste buds, don't forget that Paris has hundreds of local fishmongers happy to let you taste their fish and help you with cooking tips; but also fishmongers present every week at Paris food markets. "How to shell a Normandy scallop? How to preserve it? Why does coral look so good on it?" So many questions to ask them!

Let's take advantage of this free family plan!
