Le Bouchon Provencal

We stumbled across this restaurant during our stay for the Euros and over 9 days we went back every day. The set menus, the a la carte, the wine list all proved too good not to keep coming back.

The Bouchon Provencal is not to be recommended for tourists. The attitude of the staff and the food is not really suitable for non-french citizens.
