Burgundy's appeal exceeds even its namesake wine, and tourists and travelers looking for something new should certainly consider this picturesque and truly gastronomic region of France primarily visited by wine buffs. The great wine of the region is married to its gourmet cuisine in coq au vin which is chicken in a wine, mushroom and onion sauce, and bœuf à la bourguignonne which is the beef equivalent. Other regional dishes include marcassin farci au saucisson which is wild boar stuffed with sausage, and the famous escargots à la bourguignonne which are snails served with parsley and garlic butter. Even though Beaune is the wine capital of Burgundy, Dijon is the capital of Burgundy, thus it brings to mind the famous Crème de Cassis and the even more famous Dijon mustard.
