Where to eat in Saint-Paul-de-Vence: La Colombe d’Or, obviously

Some places are added to guides to fill a list. Then there is La Colombe d’Or. We are not going to pretend we discovered a secret, gari.

LES NIÇOISES SAY

You dine with Picasso, Miró, Matisse and the others around you. Try not to spend the whole meal photographing your own face.

1 place du Général de Gaulle

La Colombe d’Or

For modern art, history and Provençal cooking that knows exactly what room it is in.

The Roux family built an institution where works by Picasso, Miró, Matisse, Braque, Léger, Calder and others are part of the place itself. The cooking remains Provençal and Mediterranean, including the house’s famous hors-d’œuvre selection.

Restaurant open for lunch and dinner in season according to the tourist office. Booking seems sensible. You are not the first person to have heard of the place.

We could give you five more names to look thorough. We would rather spare you the performance.
