French-seeking foodies can get their fancy feasting fixes when Chef Damien Watel celebrates National Escargot Day. As San Antonio’s premier French restaurant, Chez Vatel Bistro is the number one destination to celebrate these slow-moving delicacies.

Get your escargot fix during lunch or dinner hours. If you need some motivation for trying the French staple for the first time, snails are rich in iron, protein, and omega-3s. You can also wash them down with a perfectly paired unoaked chardonnay, sauvignon blanc, or champagne to really get in the spirit of the holiday.
