nothing to do with the Cannes Film Festival old Suquet
Film Festival has nothing to do with the old Suquet
Cannes is a small town by the water, but in recent years gradually lower the river bed, so the old pier no longer busy, the function also gradually degenerate into a tourist landscape. Cannes has a red roof from the Railway Station, 5 minutes walk, walk the beach. Station and the coast are vast area between New Street, the old port to the West is the area between the old streets. Cannes still follow the ancient name of old Suquet, means a Provencal fish soup.
I rented an apartment hillside, just in the old streets of the intersection, walk to the main hall just 10 minutes. Although the roadside shops, laundry, pharmacy, butcher, etc. within their stores, have been posted on the festival's posters, but in fact, the overall atmosphere is quiet old seems to pull on the film festival was outside - in town the other side of Cannes, the local people day after day, usually while warm with life as usual.
from my residence in the streets close to the old center Fowei Le markets, people buy food, shopping timberland boots, chat, did not disturb the film festival. Opened on time every morning, save the old city of Fo Weile the vitality of the market, many markets around the grocery store standing next to the Fowei Le cellar is frequented local wine store, the price is not high .
road from the stone to move forward, both sides are mottled old houses, where the past is the Cannes home of fishermen, now the sons of fishermen, native is still here, and now rely on fishing for a living in Cannes Only a dozen fishermen, most of them to open a small restaurant for the industry. Across from midnight, a small restaurant table cloth covered with brighter, spreading from the interior to the stone on the road, an ancient city lights candles shine.
locals say, to experience the most authentic Cannes harbor style, must go to a company called La Taverne Lucullus bistro. I am in the evening, walking alone to this restaurant located next to the old market, and the festival was full of extravagant grace perfume the air is different from the tavern has a fishy smell mixed with an alcohol taste the bold flavor, just is just getting off the sailors sitting, drinking beer, big mouth, a great place to chat all over the world anecdotes.
This pub is open from 5 am to 7 pm, the main customers are in the wholesale fish market goods fishermen, and talk after work, take a break to drink in the bar beer, tasting snacks modulation boss personally, the boss at the bar accompanied the guests chat. There is always the main topic of football, but not the hundred meters ongoing film festival.
La Taverne Lucullus received only the drinks discount timberland boots, side dishes is a bonus timberland earth boots, the side dishes are usually steamed sardines, garlic mayonnaise heating bread, marinated olives, etc. links london sale, on Friday you can eat fresh of fish.
probably because perennial bathed in brilliant sunlight of Provence's sake, most local residents Cannes hospitality. Every day I walk alone, watching a movie night on the way back to apartment, often encounter the friendly local young man accosted the ground to voluntarily accompany me to go a dark road. However, they are sometimes very difficult to distinguish the Chinese people face, and my colleagues of the two Chinese boys, each time through the corner tavern, will be all that enthusiastic cook with a large cavity with a heavy French English greeting: , Jacky Chen!
