So while a fair amount of cooking and eating was done in our airy, modern apartment, one can't go to Provence without testing the local food fair. I must say that in general, the food didn't blow me away quite as much as I'd anticipated, but still, with fresh, beautiful ingredients that come so naturally to the area, even the mid range meals weren't too shabby.
 |
| Moules Marinière |
 |
| Canard w/ honey |
 |
| Nougat Glacée - quickly to become my new dessert of choice |
 |
| Lots of gelato consumed (and an ecstatic brother...) |
 |
| Salade niçoise - bien sure! |
 |
| Monaco Ice Cream (before I lost my fortune at the casino...) |
 |
| True seafood, and my first oyster |
 |
| Beautiful salmon tartare |
 |
| More gelato... |
 |
| Medaillon de boeuf aux champignons |
 |
| MORE nougat glacée... (I also happen to be eating nougat right now.) |
 |
By far the best meal of the trip!
Poached monkfish with a coconut lemongrass sauce,
vanilla fondant potatoes and almost melting vegetables
From Papayou - highly recommend!! |
 |
| Mango and pineapple crumble |
So there's a whirlwind of food! It would be a bit tedious to go through them all in detail, but needless to say, we ate well.
