Direct Quote from the Dax tourist guide :
"The Saturday markets are much more than a brisk
commercial activity, the markets are the meeting place for all
Chalosse, this region to the South of
the Vast Landes department, which
has been shaken from its habitual morning disposition.
To the rhythm of the Gascon dialect, we discover the great variety of colorful farm produce on
display here.
The covered Market of Gras, more particular, is a wonderful gastronomic event that can and often does, shed a ray of sunshine into what
can be a rather sad and morose World."
