Marseille -- lavender honey ice cream at Maison de la Glace

Wow, wow, wow.

Sooo yummy.

One boule of lavender honey and one of pistachio. Intense, but the right balance of honey and lavender. Just really, really good.

Also, a fantastic "frangipani" almond cream pastry from a bakery on Rue Capitaine de la Corse in the Le Pharo neighborhood.

Just a quick food-spotting moment in case anyone else is up that way and looking for goodies ;-)

      Actually, I think the bakery was Patisserie Saint Victoir:
