A town in Languedoc, prefecture of the Tarn department, famous for the Albigensian heresy, stuffed goose necks, pork liver, juniper berries and local pastries.
Bleak. A small, elongated, white-fleshed fish, abundant in lakes and quiet waterways. Its scales, which are thin and silvery, come away easily. The flesh of the pond bleak is of poor quality, but that of the river variety is fairly good, though full of little bones. It is about 15 cm (6 inches) long and invariably served fried.
