‘I enjoyed a splendid tour of marché Richelme with Edouard, situated right in the historic heart of Aix. Edouard inquired about my favorite foods, and we visited the various stalls accordingly. I was in search of quality jam, so Edouard ensured that I got to taste Christophe’s homemade 60% fruit assortment. With my ultimate “guilty pleasure” being cheese, the tour was nothing short of phenomenal (with a choice of at least 5 or 6 unique stalls and, oh heavens…that fresh goat cheese!). The unexpected highlight (and now a small favourite) turned out to be mushrooms - it’s mushroom season, a fact I hadn’t noticed but well known to Edouard who frequents the place daily. Overall, a wonderful tour for anyone desiring to explore the markets of southern France, or for individuals (like myself) aiming to embark on a local product shopping extravaganza. Fantastic tour!’
