Marseille offers a diverse culinary scene, with influences from Corsica, Italy, Lebanon, Turkey, and the Congo. However, the city’s most iconic dish is bouillabaisse, a fish and seafood stew, which is as common as rosé wine in the region. Provence’s most-produced wine is rosé, but for something distinct, try pastis, an anise-flavored aperitif that’s a local favorite. A perfect ending to a gastronomic road trip through the Vallée de la Gastronomie could include sipping pastis in Marseille's Old Port, enjoying bouillabaisse or Mediterranean oysters, and pairing it all with a Provençal rosé. For those still hungry, a trip north to Burgundy promises more culinary delights.
