Le Petit Café in the Majestic Oppède-le-Vieux
Cheryl Shufflebotham · Restaurant Recommendations · TasteSome things just don’t change. Don’t you love it when you return to a place and it feels like nothing has skipped a beat while you were gone?

The restaurant has a certain “je ne sais quoi” eclectic feel in this town that feels somewhat abandoned or undiscovered depending on your perspective.
