Loulabelle's FrancoFiles Ep 8 - Michelin Stars, French icons&cooking with lavender in Provence! - a podcast by Lou

A few years back I visited Provence with my partner Paul and did a little road trip all around the area close to Avignon.

One particular day was spent cooking at Jean-Marc Villard's cooking school. Jean-Marc has decades of experience as a head chef in some of the best and Michelin star restaurants across France, as well as a long stint in the US where he brought the French cuisine to America in the early 1980s. 

Prior to opening his cooking school for non-professional chefs in 2001 (first in Lyon and more recently in his home in Maubec, Provence) Jean-Marc instructed chefs at the prestigious Paul Bocuse cooking school.

For "foodie" FrancoFilers, when travelling to Provence this is an experience not to be missed!

We also hear from French Icon Pierre Perret. A wonderful tribute to the amazing singer, songwriter and performer. A tribute to his 1979 Au Cafe de Canal xx
