Set off at 8:30 AM with Chef Kalice Brun — a beloved local figure, as warm as she is insightful.
The day begins in Ventimiglia with a cappuccino and a stroll through the covered market, where you’ll handpick the freshest ingredients of the day. Then head to Breil-sur-Roya, to Sandra’s home — a former stone shepherd’s house nestled beside a generous vegetable garden. There, you’ll harvest from the garden and take part in an open-air cooking workshop, creating a full Niçois menu from starter to dessert — a joyful, seasonal immersion into the flavors of the Riviera.

A Taste of True Riviera

Imagine a day suspended in time — where you cook what you’ve just picked, and laughter mingles with the scent of fresh herbs.
Under the pergola or in the shade of olive trees, cooking becomes a celebration.
Kalice gently guides you through the rhythm of time-honored gestures, grandmother’s recipes, and the quiet secrets of the land.
Golden pissaladière, lemon risotto, strawberry soup… You’ll leave with your taste buds delighted and your heart full.

06 · Pétanque, the French Way
Discover Èze, a hilltop village suspended between sky and sea — a maze of cobbled lanes and stone houses with colorful shutters. Overlooking the Mediterranean, this medieval gem feels like stepping into a living postcard.

After this journey through history, head toward Villefranche-sur-Mer or Mont Boron for a moment steeped in Provençal charm: a game of pétanque in a shaded courtyard. With the soft clink of metal balls and a Niçois apéritif in hand, you’ll experience the true southern art of living.

Experience Provençal tradition

Petanque isn't just a game, it's a Southern ritual.
Under the pine trees, players measure, discuss and joke - each throw is a moment of sharing. You'll be introduced to a sport where skill counts as much as conviviality.

In between shots, glasses of rosé fill up, tapenades invite themselves onto the table, and laughter erupts.

From the Croisette in Cannes to the Lerins Islands

The sea gently rocks you, the city sparkles in the distance, and slowly, the sacred stillness of Saint-Honorat wraps around you. Here, the vines seem to whisper their secrets, brushed by the salty breeze. You sip a wine shaped by time and prayer, and a bittersweet Leirincello that lingers on the tongue.
