Van Gogh and gastronomical adventures

On Tuesday, we left Avignon and drove to the nearby town Arles, because there was a VoiceMap tour there, about Van Gogh who lived in Arles and painted many of his most famous paintings there, including the Starry Night 🌌 and the Sunflowers 🌻. Even though there are no apparent sites to see, the tour was very interesting, truly diving into the life of this tormented creative genius. We then went for lunch to a beautiful small restaurant with super cute courtyard and shared delicious eggplant dish and seared swordfish. We then drove about an hour to Aix-de-Provence where we would be staying overnight. Igor had to work but I went for a quick visit to a small but very rich art museum and capped the night with solo dinner a a small organic restaurant recommended by Frommers. It was a one man show - the owner is a chef and server. He used to work in top world restaurants but then decided to open this small place with 6 tables and tiny menu. It was divine!Meer informatie
