French to English: La gastronomie bordelaise/Gastronomy in Bordeaux General field: Marketing Detailed field: Tourism & Travel
Source text - French La gastronomie bordelaise
La gastronomie bordelaise se tourne autant vers la mer que vers la terre, c’est là un reflet de la vision à 360° qu’a su entretenir la ville avec son territoire tout au long de son Histoire sous le signe du vin, le symbole et produit-phare du Bordelais, qui trône autant sur les tables que dans les assiettes au détour d’une sauce ou d’une marinade.
En tant que ville-port, Bordeaux offre évidemment une foule de merveilles gastronomiques côté mer.
Véritable richesse culinaire, l’estuaire de la gironde regorge de poissons migrateurs qui viennent y frayer. Depuis toujours, ils font le régal des familles bordelaises qui ont su les accommoder pour en faire des plats typiquement régionaux. Ces célèbres poissons sont à l’origine même de l’attachement du terroir bordelais à son fleuve et à sa culture gastronomique.
Translation - English Gastronomy in Bordeaux
Bordeaux’s rich cuisine is as much about the sea as it is the land, thanks to the relationship the region has enjoyed with its surrounding environment throughout its long history, but there’s one product that takes all the headlines: wine – the global symbol of Bordeaux and its main produce. This ancient drink takes centre stage not only in glasses on Bordelais tables but also in tasty sauces and marinades.
Being a port city, Bordeaux offers an exciting range of culinary delights fresh from the sea.
The Gironde estuary is a culinary treasure trove, brimming with migratory fish that come to spawn. For as long as can be remembered, these fish have been somewhat of a speciality for Bordelais families, who over time have perfected and prepared them to make delicious and emblematic regional dishes. These famous fish are one of the main reasons for Bordeaux’s strong love for its river and food culture in general.

Experience
Years of experience: 2. Registered at ProZ.com: Dec 2021.
I am a native English speaker who provides high-quality, well-researched and fluent translations for anyone looking to communicate successfully between different languages and cultures. I deliver effective and accurate translations in the following language combinations; Spanish (ES) > English (UK) and French (FR) > English (UK).
Producing a translation of the highest quality is at the core of my values, and I would not accept a job if I did not believe I was capable of translating the content effectively and before the agreed deadline. My translation strengths include producing a fluent and coherent translation, favouring an approach geared towards translating the message of the text rather than a literal translation which usually produces a clunky and incoherent message to the target audience.
Thanks to my education, travelling opportunities, and professional experience, my specialisms include travel and tourism, sport, and food and gastronomy (Notably the speciality coffee and wine industries). However, my other interests include history, politics, and current and cultural affairs.
I hold a BA in Modern Languages (French, Spanish and Italian) and an MA in Translation Studies (French and Spanish). I am a certified CIOL career affiliate and an ITI affiliate member.
