Taste of the Tour: Quenelles de brochet, Nougat in the Rhone

VILLARS-LES-DOMBES, France (AP) — A gastronomical, sporting and cultural glance at Stage 14 of the Tour de France on Saturday:

Region: Stage 14 took the peloton on a 208.5-kilometer (130-mile) trek up the Rhone Valley from Montelimar to a bird sanctuary near the town of Villars-Les-Dombes.

Baguette and butter: Mark Cavendish sprinted to his fourth victory. Finishing in the main pack, Chris Froome had little trouble holding onto the yellow jersey. The peloton stopped for a minute of silence at the start of the stage in honor of the 84 victims of the truck attack in Nice.
