Have  you made plans for Saint Valentine’s Day yet?

If not, the Aix tourist office have a long list of eateries in town offering a special menu.  There’s lots of choice from Le Grillon in the Cours, to the Hotel Renaissance, Ze Bistro or L’Esprit de la Violette: details on their website –  http://www.aixenprovencetourism.com/que-faire-pour-la-saint-valentin-a-aix-en-provence/#!

‘O Zen’ at Le Passage, which is a rather exciting conversion of a former calisson bakery, has music to go with its special menu.

Meanwhile, Book in Bar are celebrating with a ‘day of surprises’.  This includes ‘hearty cakes, love potions and a pinch of eroticism’.  Blimey.  No doubt they will have lots of suggestions for suitable reading too.

The team at Book-in-Bar ready for action!

And finally, if you decide to stay home with your Valentine, you could cut time in the kitchen by buying your beloved a dessert from Picard.

They have 2 Coeurs Patissiers for just 4,95 euros, though intriguingly, they are offering 50% off if you buy a second pack.  For those with more than one Valentine?

Actually they look delicious enough to want two packs…..offer ends Tuesday.
