Beaune in the news today
Beaune was the star of the news on TF1 channel today. You'll see the Hospices, the market, the vineyards and cellars and even Olivier Leflaive... in French.

BTW, Beaune has a population of 23000, not 223000 as mentioned.

Thanks!! Coco, what's Dijon/Beaune like in late February - we are thinking of getting out of town during Fasnacht week next year. Cold weather doesn't bother us and we like winter trips to cities.

"what's Dijon/Beaune like in late February" It's usually cold and humid, we can also have some snow. There are winter holidays as well so it is rather quite. Since I don't like coldness this is the time we choose to go to a warmer place. But if you like cold weather and almost no tourists, this is perfect!

Restaurants won't close in Feb, I'd be surprised. Don't miss Stephane Derbord's 25€ lunch menu on week days, so good value for a one star Michelin, all my guests loved it and I do too!

Thank you for reminding me of the days I spent in the area.
I had a great meal here in Beaune: http://www.caveau-des-arches.com/res...estaurant.html

I love that announcer and how clearly she speaks French. I am going to have my SO listen to her as often as possible. By the way, during the broadcast, she did say that the population was "vingt-deux mille," so she herself corrected the pop-up on the news forum.
