I visited twice while in Marseille, finding it after getting completely turned around my first day (silly East-West oriented maps!). The tiny, pink, and adorable one-room spot beconed, especially when I saw "cupcake" in the name! The coffee was good - that strong, espresso-style cafe of France, and the cupcakes were quite good: the cake was a bit dense and a bit dry, but inside the cupcake was thenmost amazing and glorious dollop of chocolate ganash, a fabulous hidden surprise! The staff were incredible as well; English is not as common here as in Paris, but kind, asking to the best of their abilities where I was from, how my trip was, what was next.

Delicious!! Huge selection of treats and the staff is very kind. We came at 945am and there was no…read moreline. Love that they have mini canelis if you want just a bite sized treat!

In Marseilles, right along the water, there are two rival chichi fregi stands. Les chichis fregis…read moreis a popular street food in Marseilles, which I can attest to. When I went to this stand, there were a bunch of locals and myself - very friendly & talkative locals lol. Chez Magali is the red stand between the two options. Created in the 1930s, L'Estaque district's famous stretched doughnuts have such a unique look to them, often compared to churros which I don't understand because they look so different. It's even said - don't tell an Estacan that Chichi Frégi are like churros! :P Did I mention they're vegan?! This unique pastry is thick & fluffy, almost as if pumped with air to give a light delicious flavor. You can have it plain, with sugar or even with chantilly whipped cream. We preferred the nicely dusted with sugar version best but ymmv. I recommend getting one from each stand & comparing as I did! My friend and I found a huge stone to sit on while overlooking the ocean, about 10 steps from the stand. Gorgeous views with delicious eats in Marseilles!

My mom told us about the Chichi Fregi since we were kids and to be able to go back to L'Estaque…read morewith her and my wife to have a chichi Fregi will be a memory that I will have for the rest of my life. Simply priceless. Chichi Fregi is not available in Marseille, so you have to make the trek to L'Estaque but it will be well worth it. There are two Chichi Fregi pop-up locations within a short distance of each other and while the other location was featured on YouTube, we did not get a chance to do a side-by-side comparison. We ordered and the husband and wife team worked seamlessly together to take the order and make the Chichi Fregis. Wait! What is a Chichi Fregis you ask? Chichi Fregis is Marseille's original street food. It is a long deep-fried dough fritter. Think of it as a fat beignet loaf/baguette. It's hot and the sugar coating will be all over your mouth, hands, and clothes. With the wind whipping from the ocean, your hair will be flying but your taste buds will be flying even higher once you bit into a Chichi Fregis.

Had to add a bit of sugar. Raspberry was a good choice. I got the 'Fat Mike' and the wife got the 'NY I Love You' sandwiches. The bacon crumbles were great; a bit messy but very good. The avocado was superb! That made the sandwich! The cheddar was nice too. I really dig the 'Fat Mike' sandwich. The charcoal bagel bread added to the already plentiful flavors of the 'NY I Love You' sandwich. We would return to try more sandwiches, if we had the time.
