This was a city that we never intended to get to, but once here, we fell in love with it…..so much so, 8 months after our trip I still want to go back and live there. Spent 3 days walking everywhere – great sites, great wine and great food!

Dijon is a city in which we can eat very well in France. If you ever go there, try to eat at Stéphane Derbord (at the Hotel Wilson), he’s a culinary genius. The old city is also very pretty and Dijon is of course the home of the Moutard de Dijon and also the Crème de Cassis (for aperitives). The Art Museum which is the former residence of their Kings is a must-see.

My mum is from Dijon and I still have family over there. Dijon is at the heart of one of the largest wine regions of France. It has some of the best food anywhere in the country. The climate is continental: cold in winter, quite warm in summer. One typical architectural detail of the region is roofs made of coloured slate, like a mosaic. When out there, visit the old town, taste the wine, mustard, creme de cassis, ginger bread and generally enjoy life in a beautiful place.

We visited this city briefly on our own ‘tour de france’ for some lunch. We were suprised there were a lot of nice buildings there (we only knew Dijon from it’s famous mustard). We noticed a lot of little owls on the pavement. Afterwards we learned it was a tourist guide that takes you to all the interesting places. Next time we’ll definitly do this.
