D'Artanjans

Recreate D'Artagnan and the three musketeers' famous breakfast on the bastion of St. Gervais at this superb French delicatessen-cum-cafe. Fine wines, fine cheeses and fine viandes abound and there's even French oysters available (flown in fresh from Gallic shores). Either make your purchases and take away to the nearest guarded fortress comme les trois mousquetaires, or avoid the cardinal's men on the first floor cafe where you can take a comfortable sofa and sip in safety. How very civilised. How very French.

"During my Foreign Service assignment in Riga (2000-2002), I lived in Berga Bazaars Passage where d'Artanjans is located. I befriended Cyril Prono, the owner, through my frequent visits to his delectable shop and always would pick up several cheeses and pate, then have coffee/croissant with Cyril on his charming outdoor patio. He loved my "Death by Chocolate" cookies which I would drop off occasionally as a treat. Sharon O'Neal, Asheville, NC"
