For me it’s the best restaurant in Arles. But I’m terrible, it’s been 10 years since I went anywhere else. – Jean-Jacques Naudet
“One evening, a few days before the start of the opening week, Francois Hebel, who as usual used to run from exhibition to exhibition to make sure everything was ready, stopped a few minutes at the Galoubet to breath and have a drink.These are always the rare moments where we can unwind.In the evening, François took the opportunity to introduce to us his new administrator, Aurélie. All the people present greeted and congratulated her for her new position and it is at this last moment that François and Aurèlie realized that in the agitation of the pre-opening the working contract had not been signed !!! Then someone in the assembly handed them a sneaker that they both signed symbolically !! A toast was brought to the new administrator and the party could continue! “(I take the opportunity to kiss François and Aurelie very strongly).
“During the opening week of the meetings, Jean Marie Périer reserved a table to have lunch with a friend.The next afternoon, the friend arrived, it was Charles Aznavour! He crossed the crowded terrace under the admiring eyes of customers and sat down to join Jean Marie at his table Mr. Aznavour had the particularity to speak loud because he did not hear very well.What, therefore, had to remain a discussion between friends often went beyond the circle of the table! At lunch, Jean Marie asked him what had happened to a song that had never been released.To find out which song it was, Mr Aznavour sang several tunes for him, of which, finally, the whole terrace benefited It was the 2nd of July, my birthday, I could not dream of a more beautiful gift !!
