Truffle statue, St. Saturnin les Aptes
Now I am not sure if this man was the father of all truffle hunting in France, or the father of Provencale truffle hunting. Either way he is a very important guy. I thought that most of the truffles were in the Dordogne area, but that may be because I have read the Bruno: Chief of Police mysteries that take place there.

Oh, I don't know these mysteries - could you provide me a link please?
ReplyDeleteUsually I read the Pierre Magnan novels (have read them all by now) and of course some Peter Mayle stuff ... but I am always on the lookout for reading stuff for the next vacation ... thx :-)
