Your camping holiday in Nord-Pas-de-Calais is also an opportunity to indulge in the region’s numerous culinary specialities. Start with Maroilles, described as the “finest of strong cheeses,” by the Bishop of Cambrai in 960 and “Le Welsh,” a French Welsh rarebit made with bread, cheddar and eggs. When it comes to seafood, mussels served with chips will delight both adults and children alike.
