During our visit we enjoyed the Magret du Canard with fig sauce and stuffed crab with risotto. And, for dessert, a delicious tarte au pistache with chocolate sorbet.

Yep on our last day in Provence we were looking for a good meal. We booked here the night before on…read morethe basis that it was well patronised (which is not always a good strategy - re sheep theory). I must say the service was excellent but the food was a tad disappointing although my wife was not happy with her duck. This may have been on the basis that the duck was off (a la Bazil Fawlty) that she had the night before! The actual mains were passable but the sides (layered potato slice and ratatouille) were a bit stereo typed with each main meal. I do admit that the desserts influenced my score of 3 otherwise it would have been lower. Oh hum...

Nice, little place just outside the Opera Marseille. They didn't have menu in English so I went for…read morea safe option, steak. Very well prepared, fresh salad and, my favourite in France, garlic mayonnaise. Staff very friendly and the whole experience was really nice. Looking at other tables it seemed like a place where good and fresh food is served. Desert tasted like home made. Maybe it was :-)

Bistro du Cours is in an area with a tree lined pedestrian street, a welcome respite of calm from…read morethe busy urban environment nearby. It had glowing reviews, a warm welcoming server, and a very comfortable setting. The other patrons were all regulars who knew the waiter by name, always a good sign in any restaurant. With many options at lunch from 16 Euros to 32 Euros, I chose the mid range 20 Euro ($23 USD) three course meal, a true bargain for the skill and ingredients, like this starter of fried zucchini blossom. The merlan, or whiting, was cooked perfectly with a crisp skin and moist tender flesh. The portions were so generous I opted for the café gourmand for dessert which came with tiny portions of their desserts of creme brulée and a berry cream crumble with a sesame crisp. Everything was done well and the ingredients were fresh and well sourced, so the complimentary reviews I read were well founded. It was very "correct" as the French say, meaning the service, atmosphere, and food were worth the price.

Now I'm international on Yelp. What could I say!!!…read moreAmazing food for an impressive price. Really, you can go for restaurants with stars and not get an perfect reception and perfect flavour combination. He menu is 32 euros. I got the veal's brain carpaccio with rucuola salad, the main course was the most tender pork O ever tasted so far and as a desert a french toast that you could die for. You could see the perfect balance of flavours in every dish. A well planned menu. If I had time money and stomach, I could be there until now, eating non stop. You could see the classic, the neo and the confort food mixed there. Don't think twice. Go there please
