Le Couscoussier de Provence

 The outdoor patio

 The front door

 The window of the dining lounge

The fireplace where they cook the food

Yesterday, I profiled the chateau where Picasso is buried in Vauvenargues. Vauvenargues is a tiny, but picturesque little village in Provence.  The center of it has Le Couscoussier de Provence which is a restaurant and Café.  They serve marvelous meal at good prices in an amazing setting.  They have both an outdoor and indoor seating arrangement, and they actually cook meat on the indoor fireplace.  The menu is French and Arab foods like tagines, couscous and other meat dishes.  This is a must-stop place while in Vauvenargues.

The Chateau Where Picasso is Buried

This is the chateau in the tiny village of Vauvenargues where Picasso is buried.  He bought this chateau because it was in the shadow of Mont Saint Laurier, painted often by Cezanne.  One of his wives who committed suicide is also buried on the grounds here.
