Discovering France's regions via gastronomy: Marseille, a Mediterranean melting pot

FRENCH CONNECTIONS © FRANCE 24

Bordering the French Riviera, Marseille is a one-of-a-kind place in France with a soul of its own. The colourful metropolis is famous for being the sunniest city in the country and a fascinating destination with a rich history. The southern port city has been at the crossroads of trade and immigration since it was first founded in 600 BC. All this has made Marseille into a Mediterranean melting pot with a diverse cultural and gastronomic heritage.

In this episode of French Connections Plus, we learn more about Marseille classics like bouillabaisse and pastis, but also some of the new and exciting features of the French city's bustling food scene. Join Florence Villeminot and Genie Godula as they explore the culinary wonders of Marseille.
