This colorful French port town exudes Mediterranean charm and chaotic energy. But Marseille, France’s oldest city, is often overlooked and misunderstood by French and foreign tourists alike.
Filmmaker and Marseille native Vérane Frédiani is looking to change that. She wants you to discover her hometown by following your stomach, and she’s written a cookbook to help you do it.

On a TDY to SHAPE Headquarters I was traveling with someone whose inlaws lived in Marseilles so we took a couple days leave on the return trip and stopped to visit them. I'm not sure I've ever eaten or had better wine than in those two days.

Did a trip back in '67 to Italy, through Paris. On the way back we went as far as Monte Carlo, then turned north, through Switzerland back to Deutschland. Now I wish we has spent more time on the French Riveria, including Marseille.
Thanks for the post.

Marseille is famous for many things...there is nothing like exquisite country cooking and an excellent vintage glass of wine.
