Christophe is a fixture at Menton's indoor market. You want a specific variety of potato, he'll have it. You want to know the best potato or onion for a specific dish, he knows the answer.And more than that, Christophe has a cheery word for everyone and never stops smiling. And it doesn't hurt that he's good looking too!
A happy smile and lots of lovely potatoes. Why is it that potatoes, except chips, are rarely served in restaurants? I found that if I chose fish, which was often, I would then get one or two small plain boiled ones but otherwise - chips with everything!
ReplyDeleteI presume that he would know the best potatoes for French fries.
ReplyDeleteHandsome is as handsome does, I remember hearing that back in the day. Sometimes that saying could apply in a different way, all depending upon the attitude of the handsome man. Thank goodness in Bruno's case it means cheerful, knowledgeable, willing to share.
ReplyDeleteOh Christophe,
ReplyDeleteYou could sell me anything! :)
