Marseille yesterday was strangely quiet with many shops and bars in the Panier closed. Some had notices saying they were on holiday during January; other people explained that the wind was bad, there were no cruises in on a Tuesday, Mucem is closed on a Tuesday…and so on.
Happily, eventually, the pottery store, Memoire de Terre et Terroirs opposite the docks opened its doors towards mid-day – if you haven’t visited, do, as they have a great range of Tunisian dishes, serving pots for tagines, jugs, plates at really modest cost.
They come in on the boats opposite, from Nabeul, which is the ceramics capital of the country. If you like North African tableware, this is recommended. We came out laden!
