And pan! The authentic bagnat has made its way (back) to Marseille. In the bustling heart of the Saint-Victor neighborhood, at their tiny café with a candy pink storefront and pastel-colored furniture, street foodistas Diane Fort and François Robillard are honoring Nice’s famous sandwich. A little reminder of the classic recipe: pan aka bread (from the Ludivine bakery) rubbed with raw garlic, (flaked) tuna, eggs (organic ones, from Roquevaire), thinly-sliced radishes, olives, thick-cut tomatoes, small green peppers, olive oil and fresh basil for the plain version (L’Original, which you can get with or without added anchovies) or pimped out with a harissa-lemon emulsion (Le Bon Cap). But there are also three other sandwiches to choose from, all of which are just as delightful: the BLT (Japanese white bread, homemade chipotle mayonnaise, lettuce, tomato, bacon and cheddar), the Ricocetta (ciabatta, lemony ricotta sarde, pancetta chips, arugula) and the Vegan (ciabatta, curry-lime mayonnaise, roasted carrot tops, spiced cauliflower). To go with it all, there are crispy Allauch chips, and for dessert, a homemade cookie or a slice of moist chocolate cake. // Gwen Jacquère
