French recipes that would be popular in this area. 


"The blue Coast" that is the French Riviera stretches from Monte Carlo to St Tropez in a series of seaside towns and resorts. Nice: the Italiante grand dame of cities; focal point for region; Mardi Gras, Carnival, flower & vegetable markets and has inviting sights. Cannes: Casinos, St. Tropez for beaches. Antibes and Juan-les-Pins for its associations with the Lost Generation.
Throughout the area are numerous museums containing works of painters who have lived there. Focus on food is the bouillabaisse of Marseilles, the anchovy oil and garlic tips, the minestrone-like Soupe Pistou, pissaladiere--an onion and tomato pizza, pan bagnat--a sandwich of tomatoes, onions, peppers, olives and oil, the cream garlic fish stew bourride, fresh sardines stuffed with spinach and dozens of Provencale dishes combining eggplants, artichokes, peppers, garlic and oil.
