Why Aix-en-Provence eats the way it eats
Aix-en-Provence does not eat primal out of fashion: it eats primal out of structure. With 5 documented sources — most of them local markets — the city holds a real producer network, not a boutique exception. The listings on this map are businesses that exist, with opening hours and a counter.
What you see above is literally the city counted by source type. Local Markets leads because local production allows it; everything else weighs what its network weighs. No number here is hand-rounded: they come from the listings, listing by listing.
Local Markets, first-hand
Every local markets listing in this city comes from a verified source — directory, own website or confirmed visit. The Gold, Silver and Bronze seals say who verified it, not whether the product is good: that you still decide at the counter.
