However quintessentially French these events may be, the organisers lapse into English to describe the pleasures ahead. ‘Midi Minuit en Republique’ is described as ‘la grande garden-party’, where there will be ‘street-food’ and ‘cooking-shows’.

This twelve-hour event takes place  just off the Vieux Port in the rue de la Republique with food served around a ‘grande table conviviale’.  Saturday 28th Sept.

The following day sees ‘Le Brunch des Producteurs’ up in the open square atop Fort Saint-Jean (next to MuCEM).  More English here as we are invited to ‘venir bruncher’ on creations whipped up by the chefs of the Mole Passedat.  Dishes are priced at between 3-12 euros and will be served at more ‘grandes tables conviviales’.  Sounds like fun and the views, of course, will be superb.

Just an update on the picnic parties being organised for 5-6 October.  (https://aixcentric.com/2019/09/20/book-now-for-four-star-chefs-picnics/).  If you have a Pass My Provence card, and pay for one adult picnic box, you get the second one free!

You have til 2nd October to book.

Details of how  to get a Pass My Provence card are here; http://pass.myprovence.fr/  too late for this event probably, but a very useful card to have if you are a resident of Bouches-du-Rhone.
