Enjoy theses articles for a sample of the food and drinks from Provence. After all one cannot survive on sightseeing and culture alone! The pleasure of eating French food extends well beyond Paris. Pull up a seat at a Provencal table, and you may still be talking about food 3-4 hours later, but will have no regrets. Our writers share their restaurant recommendations. Learn about our favourite local food markets. Meet the chefs, enjoy a cooking class or indulge in a culinary holiday. There are artisanal food producers and more gastronomic pleasures.
