    Today, we walked in Napoleon's footsteps during a particularly informative visit that highlighted the uniqueness of a town that became the departmental capital by the grace of the emperor. Very well informed by the tourist office, we then had lunch in a restaurant "Les Petits Bellés de Terre" where we joyfully discovered traditional Vendée cuisine revisited by the chef: definitely worth the detour. Thank you for this day.
