What is a “Fruits de Mer”?
The term fruits de mer literally means “fruits of the sea.” In France, it’s the ultimate showpiece: a grand, iced display of oysters, lobster, crab, prawns, whelk meat, and crevettes, often served with lemon wedges, homemade sauces, and plenty of chilled wine. It’s decadent yet surprisingly simple — the quality of the seafood does all the talking.
