Review #1

Wonderful Information for Traveling to Provence

Let's face it. There is no better place to shop than the Markets of Provence. The book, Markets of Provence, places you there. Imagine nibbling on the cheeses, munching on crusty breads, drinking great wines, and the wonderful scent of garrigue and lavender. The book has great recipes, phrases for use in the markets, a conversion chart, and a list of other markets in Provence. Bon appetit!




Review #2

Loved it !

I bought this book after a trip to Provence and everytime I pick it up, it is like I am there again. Markets in many smaller towns (as well as larger)are featured and there is valuable info on which day of the week is the market day in each place.




Review #3

A Year in Provence

"Markets of Provence" is a delightful coffee table book/cookbook exploring France's southern Provencale region. It gives travelers tips for finding the seasonal markets,as well as the right ingredients. There is an emphasis on fresh fruits and vegetables that are in season. The dishes tend to be earthy,peasant food. There's ratatouille,the signature dish of Provence,along with piperade,the egg/vegetable omelette that's actually from the Basques. It's a joyous exploration of food and culture. Bon appetit!
