Valentine's Day 100% Made in Région Sud!

In a relationship? Good for you

Cook something nice (without garlic))

We love garlic in the Région Sud. It add a touch of je ne sais quoi to our sunny vegetables, grilled fish and tapenade. But here’s the problem: if you want to avoid putting a damper on things, you really should avoid it. At least for one evening. Instead, concoct your menu thanks to our 100% guaranteed garlic-free southern recipes:

– Camargue Rice with Truffles
– “Socca Niçoise” flatbread
– Sweet Chard Tard
– Olive Oil Cake 

And to make sure the mood is as sunny as your dishes, you’ll find our Made in Région Sud playlist here!

Tip: if you’re fed up with your relationship but too cowardly to tell them face to face, simply forget all of the above. Sunny vegetables, grilled fish or tapenade spiked with a good dose of garlic should seal the deal nicely.

Breathless

Not keen on routine? We have just what you need to rekindle the flame. Treat yourself (or even better, get someone to treat you) to a leap of faith this Valentine’s Day: a duo zipline ride at La Colmiane, in the Alpes-Maritimes. Descending 2,500 metres at speeds of up to 130 km/h, this little adventure in the clouds promises to leave you breathless. While you’re there, how about a skydive from Gap-Tallard airfield? And if your better half tends to get queasy, no problem, simply opt for our Plan B: slow mode stargazing at Saint-Véran. Perched at an altitude of over 2,000 metres, the “village where roosterspeck the stars” reputedly enjoys Europe’s purest skies… A dream spot for admiring the sparkling constellations and forgetting that one marriage in two ends in divorce.
