Thanks John!

Our chef of the herbs Veyrat, said he was closing "La Maison de Marc Veyrat", better known as "L'Auberge de l'Eridan" located on lac Annecy, and is a three time star rated in the Michelin. "I am stopping work in Annecy because physically, I have to, following a serious ski accident three years ago," Veyrat said. he said it is put on "standby" and maybe it will be transformed when it reopens. He for several months, has been working on setting up an ecological farmstead in Manigod, his native village in the French Alps.

Robert is dead, Louise retired, daughter Pascal and husband and nephew now run the place. Make sure you tell your guests that there is a Turkish toilet, should some one be squeemish. Robert et Louise: 64, rue Vieille-du-Temple. Tel.: 01 42 78 55 89.

That sounds wonderful!. How I miss the South of France!

terroir, I believe means the product comes from the area that its climate soil and water contribute to the taste.

Thanks laidback, your photos, as usual are very good.

Sorry to read here that Chez Angele is no more. I hope CHEZ JAKY is still there in Belon, for great , fresh, honest seafood.

It's been sevral years sice my stay in Avignon but my favorites were Christian Étienne, Hiély-Luculus, Le Bain-Marie, Le Vielle Fontaine. For oysters, Le Port des Barques.

We were staying at a B&B In Cazels. Our hostess recommended a restaurant In Saviac named La Casserole. We liked it very much. i wonder if Carlux has dined there?

Well I am not a fan of his new place in Arles. He's jumped on the foam bandwagon and sittting outside where you sit on the street is very distracting. A crying baby at the café that sits next to it. Neighbors go in and out of their apartments. I'd like feed back on the new chef at La Chassagnette. My French magazines have praised him.

He certainly was a charmer! He came to every table on the terrace to greet everyone with his big smile, as frail as he was.

My three favorites at the moment are La Voile #1 La Bouchée #2-both on Newbury St. And the Rendezvous-Mass.Ave in Central Square

On Lac Annecy, Auberge de Eriden $$$

lÁffenage which has a Provençal buffet and frequented by locals. The l'Atelier may be too pricey and not appreciated by children. Rabanel has jumped on the foam band wagon. And if it's warm, sitting at the Place de Forum at one of the cafés for lunch will be enjoyable for the children.

That was one of my favorite markets also. Very few have as much pottery so that you can do all your shopping at this one market.

AGM shared some with meQQ Pim or her site this past week has some recipes. Has anyone tried the caramels?

In Arles, the locals love L'Affenage. A good restaurant in Isle -Sur-La-Sorgue is Le Jardin du Quai.

judish , there is foam in Arles at L'Atelier!

Your photos are very nice but disapponted to see the dishes with foam. It's getting out of hand. I'll stick to the Auberge I'll

Someone posted that they ate there a few days ago.

someone posted on th BJ paris forum that they read it is closed. Anyone know for sure?

I love a Debt to pleasure. Read James Patterson's Cooking with Ferna Branca. This one takes place in Tuscany.

I'm a big Pastis drinker. My dog's name is Pastis.

I prefer fish years ago I went to La Marée and Prunier and they were great but don't know what the rating is now. I love oysters so I wish I had read this when I went in February: http://travel.nytimes.com/2007/06/24/travel/24Bite.html
