La Montjoie Bistro and Creperie in Aigues-Mortes

I was pleasantly surprised to find that the prices in La Montjoie Creperie in Aigues-Mortes was incredibly reasonable.  As a matter of fact, even though it is a major tourist attraction in the Camargue, the prices in all of the cafes are better than say, St. Remy-de-Provence.

Chic Outdoor Table


One thing about the French, is that not only did they invent the word "chic", they embody it and embrace it.  This chic outdoor table is very well appointed with modern Mediterranean furniture, and features that make the eating experience more enjoyable.

Massive Table Bouquet

I've mentioned the ubiquity of flowers in Provencal life.  Here is proof.  Look at the massive table arrangement that I found in a bistro.  It is almost as if a giant visited among dwarfs.

Bistros provide excellent eating places in Provence.  Generally you can get the pleasure of eating outdoors with a succulent meal.  This particular bistro is a highly rated eatery in St. Remy de Provence called Chez Fanny.

Bistro Food

A white pepper sauce on a perfect steak with roast potatoes, peas, a side salad and vegetables, washed down with a wonderful Cote de Luberon rose wine. This was just lunch.
