Bolognese

This is our dinner on Harvey and Carol's first night. We made up a spaghetti Bolognese half from scratch and fed the tired travelers.

Le Fournil

The restaurant Le Fournil, in Bonnieux, is mentioned in almost every guidebook about Provence. It's also on a lot of Provencale blogs. Apparantly, in the Summer, especially August, a table here is very hard to get.

We barely beat a bike tour to get this table and a great lunch. The rose was top of the line.

Duck

On out night out at Auberge I ordered the duck and Janie the fish. My duck was wonderful.

As you can see, in France you are never given a huge volume of food, which is nice. I ate this and a bit of bread and was more than satisfied.

Auberge

We always like to have one meal at the hotel in town, Auberge du Presbytere. It's a little fancier than the other restaurants but the food and service are always good.

We were early enough in the year to sit outside for the first time ever.

Pizza in Apt

Our choice of pizza parlors was confirmed this day.

We have loved Pizzeria O'Grille since first we ate here. We decided to go there at noon one day. We barely got a table before a crowd of local people filled the place.

Love the name too.
