In-Depth Information
La Roselière €
(3 rue du Renoyer; mains €12-15; Tue-Sat)
Bric-a-brac crowds the ceiling and the
chef-owner shouts jokes at diners' expense but by your second glass you'll be laughing
along, unless you're shy, in which case don't come. Expect classics like lentils and saus-
ages. Cash only.
BISTRO
Pizzeria Chez Moustache €
( 04 90 34 31 03; Chemin les Peyrières Blanches; pizzas €8-14; 7pm-1am Tue-Sun,
lunch Sun; )
The only restaurant outside Avignon open after 10pm, this hard-to-find
pizzeria has a wood-fired oven, kids' toys and a local crowd that likes to drink. From
Orange, go 3km south on rte de Châteauneuf (D68); cross under autoroute, and turn right
onto tiny Chemin de la Gironde (look for the sign); keep bearing right.
