For my part, I estimate the delights of his Nougat in the incomparable flavour elaborated in the family and home-made tradition.

Recently moved here to Avignon and trying out all the cafes and patisseries as of course this is…read moreFrance and there's several on every block. The cafe is beautifully decorated and pastries impeccably displayed. Pastry prices average roughly 5 euros each and portions are small but I'm sure they're worth it. The lattes however are way overpriced for such a small portion at just under 5 euros, much higher than many of the cafes in Avignon. The service is where I leave this place only two stars. The blonde woman who served us was extremely dismissive, and yes my french isn't great, however she seemed to make an effort to show she had zero idea of what I was saying. I ordered a second cup of overpriced latte, where we resorted to pointing to my current cup and saying one more. What annoyed me was the two older ladies sitting next to us had ordered coffee after us but was served before us even having us wait a bit longer. The woman didn't seem to care that we were there, wasn't friendly and we seemed to be an inconvenience to her day. I will obviously kick this place off my list of places to frequent to which I'm sure they'll be glad about. If you want great coffee at reasonable rates and welcoming atmosphere, visit Françoise near Place Pie. A large latte is only 3.30 euros.

Possibly the best restaurant in Provence is in the heart of St. Remy. L'ailse ou la Cuisse presents…read morea surprising broad menu in a beautiful outdoor setting. Servers are affable and accommodating to dietary menu amendments, something many other Provence restaurants discourage. We dined there twice with consistently impressive results. The menu is diverse by Provence standards, where many restaurants offer two or three main courses. There are two can't-miss menu options that should be on every diner's table: (1) the lamb shoulder, which cooks for seven hours and can be separated with a spoon; and (2) the Asian marinated pork ribs, similarly cooked for five hours until it simply falls off the bone and melts in your mouth. Somehow, even with these delicacies, the desserts steal the show. Guests are invited to the dessert display to select their meal's final course. Make sure you leave plenty of room and order several desserts to sample.

This was the worst dining experience we had in France, and maybe one of the worst for the expense…read morewe've ever had. It started well enough with a nice bottle of Chablis and a good tomato starter, but it quickly went downhill from there. Our mains were served, and both dishes were so disappointing -- I had their signature chicken dish that was bland and dry, my wife had a cod concoction that was mediocre at best, especially for the prices they were charging. After our first couple of bites, our table was soon swarmed by flies...and I'm not talking about a few, I'm talking a complete SWARM to the point that we had to cover the dishes with napkins to keep the flies off our food. The server finally came over and put one of those pest fans on our table. This didn't really help, and after trying to finish, we simply gave up, covered the remaining food with our napkins, and just finished our wine. Not good at all. And then when the daylight was fading, they turned on these bright LED lights in the umbrellas overhead -- we suddenly felt like we were dining in a doctors office.. And after all this, the only solution the manager came up with (after never coming over to our table at all) was for us to take our half eaten meal into their deserted indoor dining area across the street. Simply unacceptable. There were other problems as well but you get the idea...don't let the idyllic pictures fool you, AVOID this place at all costs! That"s $200 we will never get back. So many better places to eat in St. Remy -- DON"T GO HERE! Consider yourself warned...

We had a table next to a window overlooking what seemed like the entire Provence region. I can't imagine a better view with an afternoon tea break. I had a tea called relaxante, a blend of Rooibos and caramel tea, so delicious I would have bought a box of it right then and there. I also had the raspberry jam tart, which was homemade and the best tart I've ever had. My husband had a cafe au lait which was fine (France is not known for it's coffee). He also had a homemade raspberry/rhubarb crumble with whipped cream and it was the perfect balance of tart and sweet. All of the desserts are homemade and if you find yourself in Provence, you should go out of your way to visit this gem. The owner was very friendly and spoke some English, which is always helpful.
