The Pan Bagnat

Once called the dish of the poor, the Pan Bagnat just like the Niçois Salad has become one of THE specialities of the Niçois cuisine. Whether on the beach, for a picnic or on a bench in the street, it is the perfect and healthy meal for everybody.  Translated it means soaked bread and while in the 19th century the bread was soaked with water and tomato sauce, today it is rather soaked with olive oil. The basic ingredient for this famous Sandwich is a big round roll and when it comes to its delicious ingredients, the opinions diverge. I have made an inquiry and found for you the authentic recipe:

For one roll of a diameter of 20cm you need 1 glove of garlic to rub it on the insides of the roll. To stuff it: 3 nice tomatoes, some garden radish, a few fava beans, 2 spring onions, a branch of celery, 1 small green pepper, 1 boiled egg, ½ can of tuna, anchovies, a couple of black olives, basil, salt, pepper and of course olive oil. 

My favorite Pan Bagnat in Nice is at Tintin’s in the Place de la Liberation. Just delicious!

It is between Mandelieu La Napoule and Tanneron that you can …

Hotel Negresco

Paris has its Champs Elysées and the Eiffel Tower. While Nice has its Promenade des Anglais and the Hotel Negresco. Each time you will see a postcard, a photo or a documentary about Nice, be sure you will find the Negresco in it. The shiny white Belle Epoque building with its pink dome is moored …

Ingrid Meeting Rick Steves

One of the luckiest moments in my long career as a private tour guide was the day I met Rick Steves. Not many people here in France know him, but I had heard his name from a number of my tour guests. Many of them came on my tours carrying one of Rick Steves’s Guide …

Sanremo

About 20 miles East of Nice ends the French Riviera and begins the Italian Riviera or like we also call it the Flower Riviera. On the highway a big board greets the visitors with “Benvenuti in Italia” which means Welcome to Italy. Once you pass the border, it is amazing how the landscape changes. While …
