Mangia in Nice at l’Italie a Table

Bless the Italians who seem to be rushing to the French Riviera at the end of May every year.

In brief,  a chance to stroll along the Promenade des Anglais (the eastern side),  and be accosted with as many delights from the spectrum of Italian cuisine – as you can possibly imagine.

The dates for this year’s edition of  l’Italie à Table, in Nice, are May 28-31, 2015, a chance to sample as much Italian food as you can justify.

Provence Market via Liz LordIn the sun, at 11.30 in the morning, a bottle of rosé Prosecco seems like a very good idea indeed – a super “firsty” and guaranteed to gird the loins for much,  much more.

Protected from the elements by stylish pavilions, a load of stalls offer an absolute wealth of the best of Italian food…..come hungry and with your wallet, never mind the Prosecco – bring on the artisanal beer, ice cream, wonderful olives, pasta, jarred anchovies, rustic bread, sausage, cheese.

Not at all budget busting – there’s copious amounts of food being offered for free to taste, and for example, the mighty slab of pig in bread above is just €3.50 or €5 with a glass of red wine.

Stay in Nice – just after the Cannes Film Festival and before the summer rush of sun bunnies – and get a not bad a deal for a hotel – seriously don’t bother with breakfast.
