I had an ice cream break here with my mum and aunt on a brutally hot day in Arles, and it was a…read morereal pleasure. While many ice cream stands dot the town's tourist sites (this place is right behind the Arles Amphitheatre), it's definitely worthwhile to save yourself for an ice cream at La Maison des Gourmands in particular. The ice cream is handmade and there are dozens of flavors, from the traditional to the slightly unusual. Members of my family had salted caramel, lavender, rum raisin, and I had a blend of rose and lemon, finished off with a candied rose petal... it was sublime, and not just because of the weather outside! The owner's also a charming and friendly older gentleman who seems really knowledgable about the area's Roman history and culture in particular, and he also was keen to chat to me about it as a fellow aficionado, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend stopping by here for a "boule" or two when visiting the Arles Amphitheatre.

Except we were all à bunch of starving animals and weird paste on bread was not in the least fulfilling. This place might be good for lunch or a quick snack (reminiscent of all the tiny open face sandwiches I've eaten I central Europe) but coming here for a heavy dinner is a big mistake. Maybe if you're are a skinny French girl who only eats a salad for dinner, then this place is for you. The food here is good, but I can hardly imagine wanting to eat this stuff in general. Don't ready my review. I'm clearly not the right audience for this food.

She seemed to be on a first name basis with whomever it was on the other end of the line. It was warm enough to sit outside, and we were given the last table on the patio out front. The starters were a mixed bag. I ordered the octopus salad, which was bland and uneventful. My wife ordered an incredibly tasty leek salad with sardines and hazelnuts, which she happily devoured. But the highlight was the mains. I ordered what was basically a New York strip cooked medium rare in a morel mushroom sauce. The steak was cooked to perfection - and on the rarer side - while the sauce was very subtle, but you could still get a bit of that earthy, mushroomy flavor. I'd been craving a dish like this for several days, and it totally hit the spot. My wife's dish may have been even better: cornish hen bathed in a creamy, herb-infused sauce with freshly sautéed shitake mushrooms. My god this was delicious. The hen was amazingly juicy and tender, and generous amounts of rosemary and flat-leaf parsley made this dish explosively flavorful. The potent shitakes were rich and earthy, and perfectly suited/melded with everything else. For dessert, I had this chocolate thing with nougat inside and a nice caramel sauce, while my wife had this thing that was a pile of whipped cream and broken pieces of meringue with raspberries, raspberry coulis, and red currants. I liked mine better, but the wife's was light and refreshing, which suited the summer-like weather. And before we were halfway through our meal, the place was full. We saw the hostess turn away at least a dozen people, so good call on the reservation.
