 | | For the longest time gritty Marseille suffered an image problem, but all that changed a few years ago when a whole raft of artists and intellectuals quit Paris and made the southern city their home. |
 | | While rooted in the Proven al tradition, the food of Marseille is spiced with the flavors of Tunisia, Senegal, Vietnam, Italy and Morocco, absorbing the influence of all the different peoples who have settled within its precincts. |
 | | The first 50 pages of this "cookbook" is a wonderfully romantic but not romanticized portrait of Marseille and that historic Mediterranean port of call's long history, native customs, literary inspirations, immigrant influences, notorious mischiefs, and recent cultural revival. |
