Perpignan is gaining quite a reputation for its gourmet delights. Tony Goodman takes us on a tour of some of them.
Cindy Guilbert has forgotten more than most of us ever knew about flowers and herbs. She makes perfumes, paints mandala watercolours and other artworks, makes chocolates, dabbles in crafts……Visit her at Naturale Magick. or contacther by e-mail at naturale.magick@gmail.com.
A year and a half in the making, beleaguered with delays… the long-awaited indoor markets in the centre of Perpignan are finally open for business.
Born in Guernsey in the Channel Islands and now living for the past 12 years in the Pyrenees Orientale, I work with plants, herbs, flowers and chocolate and enjoy mixing the two together when I am not painting watercolour mandalas.
For those who love craft beers made with passion and integrity, look no further than Maureillas! Christophe Ledan, who originally comes from Lille but has travelled widely around the world, has set up his ‘brasserie artisanale’ in the village. Christophe is a true craftsman, oozing enthusiasm and expertise for his chosen profession.
At first meeting, Gerard Magny, founder of Réso Bio, is a calm and quietly-spoken man….but once he starts talking about the organic produce that lines the spacious shelves of his chain of Réso Bio shops around the region, he lights up like a firework!
