Join us to discover Saint Remy through a different angle... Food tasting and History!!!
Follow me in the hidden corners of Saint Remy and discover our fantastic local products!

- Understand how our Chocolatier is working and sample some of his 32 chocolates (Caramel & salted butter, Lavender, Rose, Seshuan pepper, Rosemary... you decide which you want),
- Learn about the history of our "Pâtisserie" and cookies. Taste the 14th C "Little Albert heart" a simple "biscuit" with saffron or try the "Ginger heart" (17th C recipe from Russia),
- Know how to choose your Calisson and I'll tell you where the name comes from,
- What is the Nougat ?,

- Sip a bit of 5 different Olive oils from our local mill producing AOC oil Les Baux de Provence,
- Bring back some of our wonderful local jams (some with Olive) or tapenade and spreads (tomatoes, artichoke, eggplant...),
