Fresh, homemade bowls with local and seasonal products. In the heart of the Mazarin quarter.
Finding a healthy restaurant in Aix-en-Provence that offers cuisine that is both wholesome, flavourful and accessible is the challenge Le Petit Palais has set itself. Located at 4 Rue Manuel, in the historic Mazarin quarter, our restaurant showcases fresh produce and world flavours through entirely homemade poké bowls.
For us, eating healthy does not mean giving up pleasure. Every bowl is carefully crafted to deliver a complete, balanced and tasty meal. We use quality proteins (fresh salmon, tuna, free-range chicken), crunchy vegetables and nutritious bases such as seasoned rice or quinoa. Everything is prepared daily in our kitchen, without preservatives or industrial additives. Discover all our recipes on our menu page.
A healthy poké bowl as we design it at Le Petit Palais is not simply a mix of ingredients. It is a meal crafted to provide the body with the essential nutrients it needs every day. Proteins, complex carbohydrates, fibre, vitamins and healthy fats: each component plays a role in the nutritional balance of the dish.
Our seasoned rice and quinoa bases supply the energy you need through moderate-glycaemic-index carbohydrates. Quinoa in particular provides all eight essential amino acids, making it an outstanding plant-based protein source.
Provence is a generous land, rich in market-garden produce, sun-ripened fruit and aromatic herbs. At Le Petit Palais, we harness this abundance by sourcing our ingredients from local producers in and around Aix-en-Provence. Working through short supply chains allows us to reduce middlemen, support the local economy and ensure fresh products picked at peak ripeness.
