Cooking lessons at the Maison de la Tour in Avignon

Sheltered from the hustle and bustle of the city, close to the medieval ramparts, Maison de la Tour restaurant is open every day except Tuesdays, Wednesday lunchtimes and Sunday evenings. They specialise in gourmet cuisine prepared with seasonal produce, which can be enjoyed in their courtyard garden under dappled sunlight and shady trees.

High-quality meat, freshly-caught fish and organic fruit and vegetables guarantee a meal packed with colour and goodness. The menu changes regularly according to the season. This atypical restaurant, with a cosy and welcoming atmosphere, offers themed evenings with local winemakers, rotisserie meat, brunches or Sunday lunches and private exhibitions by local artists.
