3 reviews of Aix en Provence Market

Aix Market in Provence

Aix, in Provence, is a beautiful city. It's very student-oriented and animated, with the incomparable touch that only Provence has. There's a market that happens twice a week, but there are always fruit and vegetable vendors, and they sell handicrafts and regional delicacies in the Cours Mirabeau. You can try the lavender honey for example, or very dry boar sausages and pork, and delicious Calissons, which is a pastry made out of almond powder. Aix is also where there's some good olive oil, as well as Grasse perfume. The traditional brand is Fragonnard them. The craft market also has Provincial objects made from olive wood, or tablecloths with the famous wasp, found in every household.

There are also linen napkins. A typical brand in the region is Souleiado. We also found the same wasp on the Laguiole knives, which is another brand from Southern France, which has now expanded offering holders and utensils. When you leave the market with your arms full of juicy tomatoes and peaches, don't miss the best Southern tradition: l'aperitif! The appetizer, which in Provence means a glass of Pastis or Pernod, as well as pastis from Marseilles.
