My visit to Marseille was not easy. People are not always very friendly. Fortunately, the picture is not that bleak: some people have made me feel welcome in this unique city.
This is the case of Vincent Quero and his team, who welcomed me to La Manne. This is a nice, simple little restaurant, the menu isn’t fussy, and the prices reflect it.
A plat du jour for 11.50 euros; a Charolais tartare for 14 euros; 11.50 euros for a lasagna. It’s simple, gentle on the wallet, and everything is good!
Chef Ivan Robert indulges in the inspirations of the moment. Obviously, at La Manne, French cuisine is a given, but during my visit, barbecue-style pork ribs were part of the small tapas available.
And why not? This is above all unpretentious cuisine. La Manne offers dishes we recognise, with ingredients we know, in a simple and friendly atmosphere. In addition you can have a drink with your friendly hosts. It must be noted that La Manne is close to the Saint-Charles train station. So travelers in transit who want to eat quickly before catching the train now know where to go!
