As an starter, the first stop is about tasting olive oils, vinager and pistacchio cream! The region of Menton and all of Provence are full of olive trees that are used to make delicious olive oils, which are often infused with different flavours such as lemon, basil or truffle. We will taste some of them as well as the special vinager flavoured with the lemon of Menton. We will also taste the pistachio cream that is currently made in Italy but that will be soon re-introduced in Provence, as it used to be.

The 2nd stop is full of savoury delights of Menton. Seated around a table, in the shadow of the hall market'splace, we will taste : - Pichade that is a kind of pizza made with fresh tomatoes, onions and aromatic herbs. The crust is crispy and the topping is flavoured with thyme and anchovies, and is a pure delight! - Pissaladière that is a delicious tart made with a thin dough and topped with caramelised onions, black olives and anchovies. The combination of sweet, savoury and slightly salty flavours make it a beloved local speciality. - & Barbajuan that is a fried ravioli made with thin dough and filled with a mixture of ricotta cheese, parmesan, herbes de Provence and Swiss chard.
