Capon, Turkey, Fattened Hen, Guinea Fowl, Quail&#8230; living or already plucked, are on display all over the town. It is only fitting that the age-old tradition of breeding and preparing special poultry for the Christmas period should be celebrated in a festive atmosphere in the town of St Sever, the capital of traditional poultry for special occasions. As well as this, it is also a great celebration of the gastronomy of the Landes in general, with poultry markets, the always-lively Cordon Bleu Contest, the special menus concocted by local restaurant owners, games, street shows, the market of local Landes products, the ceremonies of the &#8220;Confr\u00e9rie des Jabotiers&#8221; and poultry contests between the breeders. The President of Honour of the event has in the past been the award-winning chef <strong>Michel Gu\u00e9rard<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to prepare for Christmas or just have some fun, come for a weekend in gourmet country.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>St Sever <\/strong>is just south of <strong>Mont de Marsan<\/strong> in the Landes.
