Radisson Blu Hotel - Marseille - Vieux Port - France - Review

13007 Marseille,
France

Food: French, Modern French

Complimentary: Two sesame seed bread rolls with butter, ketchup and aioli, all lovely.


We ordered:

Vegetable and tapenade tart tatin, salad, balsamic vinaigrette - $12Euro


This was rather delicious. The fresh rocket added a lovely pepperiness to the sweetly acidic balsamic, salty tapenade and sweet tomatoes upon a flaky and crispy pastry.

Fresh fruit salad - $7Euro


I was pleasantly surprised with the rather 'uncommon' selection of fruit. The fruit was fresh but what I liked most were the tart redcurrants which I have not had in a fruit salad before, and I also enjoyed getting to taste the ground cherry (physallis) which had an interesting savoury taste to it. It was quite a generous portion presented beautifully in a black bowl.
