If it was in that Jean-Pierre Foucault proved himself by presenting numerous shows, such as Who wants to earn millions, Miss or even Quite an eveningit is in the south of France that the host likes to recharge his batteries. He spends happy days in his little cocoon, in the town of Carry-le-Rouet where he owns a sublime villa. The 77-year-old host also has his gastronomic habits. To savor the best bouillabaisse, Jean-Pierre Foucault swears by only one address: Le Miramar, located in the Old Port of Marseille and which is recognized throughout the world.

A symbolic place for Jean-Pierre Foucault who went there with his mother and who does not hesitate to take his friends there from now on. “ Then straight ahead, on the other side of the port, “Le Miramar” for good fish. I knew the Minguella brothers, there is a soul in this restaurant and I went there with my mother who always ate sole. When friends come from Paris for a good bouillabaisse I take them there,” he said, as reported Provence . On the restaurant’s website, we learn that the “ Business leaders, high-level athletes, 'people' and politicians jostle to savor this excellent, refined cuisine.” This mecca of gastronomy in Marseille offers a “fresh and sunny cuisine”but above all “The Real Bouillabaisse”.

What you need to know about Le Miramar

For history, Le Miramar was bought in 1965 by the Minguella brothers and very quickly, the restaurant became a must in the Marseille city. In 2003, the Buffa family became owners of the establishment and perpetuated the tradition by cooking seafood dishes and especially the tasty bouillabaisse. “I took my time, I observed the customers, let the staff do their thing”declared chef Christian Buffa, who worked in Paul Bocuse's team, as reported on the restaurant's website. Since then, Le Miramar has made a reputation around the world and customers are flocking to it.

This 1960s restaurant has retained the frescoes and red benches of yesteryear, but has also been given a youthful look. If the place itself has undergone some changes, notably with the development of a terrace, a cellar or the arrival of new staff, Le Miramar has also developed its menu. In addition to being able to savor these traditional dishes like bouillabaisse (€80), Bourride (€80) or salt-crusted fish (€13), you can taste truffle-based dishes like truffle risotto ( 45€) or the tournedos Rossini (53€). The restaurant also offers to discover its shellfish: lobster, lobster, prawns and octopus for €20.
