Fete du Citron
Menton,
is a nice city on the French Riviera, where every year, at the end of February there's a big festival at the end of the winter, with a parade of floats entirely made of lemons!

fresh squares and narrow streets cascading toward the sea: the historic heart of the city beats behind the ocher facades, shutters dimming light, preserving the privacy of homes assaults of the sun.
We cross the history at the foot of the bell glazed tiles.
Baroque art has created a remarkable ensemble: the square of the Basilica and Saint-Michel, a few steps higher, the White Penitents chapel.
At the top of the hill, the cemetery of Old Castle, last resort for Russian and British aristocrats, offers an unrivaled view of the city, the sea and the mountains of Italy.
The lemons from Menton grow in a unique micro climate in the hills suronding the city and are very low in acid. The owner of La Cigale proudly grows his own supply.

After cooking lesons in the kitchens of the La Cigale we were taken up to one of the small terraced orchards where the famed low acid Menton Lemons come from.
Yes that's the Mediterranean in the background...
