• We went to explore the town of Abbeville, Louisiana. We loved it ?. Abbeville is also known for its annual Giant Omelette Festival, which celebrates the city’s French heritage and culinary traditions. During the festival, local chefs prepare a giant omelette made with over 5,000 eggs and other ingredients, which is then shared with festival-goers.
