This is a review of the Maison Violette in Villeneuve-lez-Avignon, the suburb across the Rhône from…read moreAvignon proper. Dîtes-moi pourquoi Proust a mangé seulement les petites Madeleines?

Follow the smells of freshly baked bread and it should hopefully lead you here! They had so many…read moreitems at this bakery from bread, cookies, brownies, croissants, even pizza. Of course we indulged on pizza with cheese, a brownie, and cookie. No seating at this bakery, but we found a spot on the sidewalk and gobbled down our goodies. Divine! The cheese was sweet/salty and tasted so lovely on the fresh bread. The brownie practically melted in our mouths. Bring cash as it's easier to pay and be sure to say "Merci ! and s'il vous plait" (:

This bakery is outstanding! When we were in Avignon, I was able to preorder sandwiches, and…read morecroissants for the next morning! I prepaid and my order was ready at 7:30 am! They offer a great variety of sandwiches, and pastries. In addition, they have daily/weekly specials that give people the opportunity to try different desserts at a reasonable price. I highly recommend this bakery!

Oh dear lord, buy the bread buy the tarts, buy some for now and some for later. No matter how much…read moreyou buy, you'd wish you would have bought more, it's that good. The bread has the most incredible texture, crunchy on the outside and soft and doughy on the inside, and so full of flavour. I'm sure the pastries are as good as the bread, but unfortunately I didn't try any. Seats are often limited in this busy train station cafe. Look out for the meal deals which can save you some Euros if you're buying a drink, sandwich and dessert.

About the only place to get food at Avignon TGV. It'll keep you going, but that's about it…read more In the lentils and poached egg, the lentils were good and the poached egg acceptable, good but not for everyone. The onion-anchovy-pizza-tart was dried out, almost desiccated; I wouldn't get that again. There's two beers on hand, some wine, and the usual soft drinks. Better than a candy bar from the Selecta machine, and a fine place to sit, but definitely airport-grade food, not what I can usually find in a large train station.

I purchased the mini sandwich with chicken and it had tomatoes, olive oil, and lettuce and it was absolutely delicious on the freshest bread possible. The chicken had been roasted with French herbs and was absolutely delicious. This was a hearty sandwich to fill anybody up, and much bigger than the typical subway 6 incher. When I turned to the cashier to pay the ridiculously low price of two euros for the sandwich, I spied raspberry tartlets that cannot be passed up. Later in the day I enjoyed the tartlet and it may have been the best raspberry tart I have ever had. It was that good! For five euros, this was one of my better meals this week!
