...and restaurants surrounding the market stalls and the atmosphere is great. A trip here will soon familiarise you with the basics of the Provence diet, which include Salade nicoise, fine Mozzarrella and Buffalo tomatoes and Mesclun salad leaves. With loads of olive oil.
There are plenty of Museums in Nice, including a contemporary art museum and Musee Matisse. You will see plenty of evidence of the influence of art in the entire Provence Region. We visited Nice town centre just twice, and we found the best way was simply to relax and soak up the atmosphere over a leisurely lunch, ideally overlooking the sea front and the Promenade des Anglais.
Prices for lunches were typically around 8 EUR to 12 EUR for a Salade Nicoise or similar. Drinks were quite expensive, and you can expect to pay around 9 EUR for two glasses of lager.

...From September of last year (2000)our student daughter had a university placement as a language assistant in a school in the small but beautiful village of Cadanet in the Luberon area of Provence.
My husband, myself and our daughter, all fell deeply in love with the area. Cadanet and the neighbouring villages were each as charming and as interesting as each other.

They have a great selection of food and wine from the Provence region and seafood as well. And that at really affordble prices. I will gladly recommend `Pacific Express`(it ain´t as bad as it might sound) to everybody thinking of visiting Cannes.
I had a great time there, even though I was just staying there for 3 days for that presentation and I will recommend to at least see that historic hotel (18th century building I think) at least once when you´re around.
Thanks for reading
