Others
Far too many to mention, but a good Pizza place in Praysacc and also one in Puy L.Eveque. Numerous restaurants in Cahors, best to check with the local tourist office for recommendations, but if you just head for the centre of the town there are plenty situated along the main boulevard. Be aware that most stop serving lunch at 2pm., so make sure you are there well before.
Vineyards and wine stores
These are just a few to get you started. As you can imagine there are hundreds available in all price ranges. The local tourist office can provide you a comprehensive list.
