Food
My suggestions:
- There is a lots of possibility at Aix en provence (pizza, baggels, sushi, sandwhich, etc.)
Last year in Germany we went to a restaurant for dinner Saturday evening, I enjoyed that quite much. I would suggest we continue in this tradition this year as well. I know very good and not too expensive restaurant in Aix en Provence city center.
Anyway, let's me hear your food preferences.
