Saturday is the biggest day at the market when not only is the main building open and packed with every good thing to eat, but there are dozens of outside stalls too and usually manned by women who sell their own home grown produce. Here you see a lady selling vegetables, home made jams and fresh eggs. Yummy. And note the mimosa in a jar - this is mimosa season here.
It is quite an interesting market place.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the DP family and greetings from Stavanger :)
Feels like I am there and smelling the mimosa...Welcome...
ReplyDeleteHello Jilly,
ReplyDeleteI checked your web site and no, I am not there. Meanwhile I liked your Pension Milou. I will come back and maybe I come and visit you with my Ollie girl:)
Love a good marché - not only for the food but for the social aspect as well. You feel like you are a part of the community...
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the DP family!!
ReplyDeleteNice photo of the market. How far is Menton from Marseilles?
Wanted to say I love Cote d'Azur. I spent a summer backpacking through France and stayed in la Rocque d'Antheron for a couple of days (visiting a college friend's home) and Nice, while visiting Cannes, Monaco, Marseilles, Aix, Avignon, and Bandor. One of the best time of my life. Learned a lot about myself and the world.
ReplyDeleteIs this inside the lovely market hall? Everything looks so tempting.

ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful Valentine`s day!
I love market pictures because they reveal so much of the culture.
