| Sit outside one of the cafes with a glass of pastis and you will soon realise just why this part of France is so eternally popular. |
| We dined on a Thursday and this menu included a goat's cheese salad, and a shrimps in pastis. |
| Choose a bar with a terrace near the old port and sit and watch the world go by as you sip a glass of pastis and soak up the sun. |
| Fennel, like liquorice, dill, tarragon, ouzo and pastis, is something you love or hate. |
| Add the fennel seeds, pastis, wine, paste, herbs, saffron, orange peel and stock and bring to the boil. |
| And should all of those fail, there's the local pastis, served with ice and a carafe of water, an aniseed-flavoured wonder. |
