I have been researching restaurants in Provence that I have read about either in the Michelin Red Guide or in Patricia Wells "The Provence Cookbook". Often times I google them and keep coming up with the following site which is really very well done:

http://www.guidegantie.com/en/index.php

The list of cities on the right-hand side is not a complete listing so if you put in, say Paradou in the search box, it will show you restaurants in Paradou. If the restaurant has a web page, it is listed.

It also has a Selection of Rooms and lists of shops under The Southern Pantry. I have just begun to look around but thought someone else might like this tip.

I very much like the Red Guide (which Stu wisely recommends) after I learned to use it.

Thanks, Ronda.
It looks like a great site and could be very helpful to our planning.

Hi Rhonda, I have his guide book. 2005 was the first year it was published with an English translation.

It's a really nice and well done site.
It does say that it lists those from his book for 2004... so you should check to make sure that the restaurant still exists, etc.

I did write to tell them about L'atelier de Jean-Luc Rabanel in Arles as it wasn't listed - and to let them know that he's left "la Chassagnette".
I did notice a few places mentioned in the area that no longer exist or are under a different chef/manager and have changed names.

I'm using it as backup reserch. I do like all the pictures of the restaurants and especially those that have the panoramas.
