I'm headed off soon for my first visit to the south of France. I'm sure there will be great food around every corner. Does anyone with a bit of knowledge of the area have any specific suggestions or recommendations? We'll be based in a rented house nearby Nice and will have full access to a car. I'm willing to drive or take the train pretty much any distance. We'll also be crossing the border into Italy for at least a one day trip, potentially longer.
Food? Wine? Must see attractions? Thanks.

Since it's inevitably going to happen anyway, I'll just get it over with and be the first to say that I hope you have a Nice trip.

As always, try to speak the local language and you'll have an awesome time.

Very nice! Have a great time.
Ask them where you can find some freedom fries. In English. With a "W" t-shirt on.

Watch out for dog poop on the sidewalks. I seem to remember the French didn't have pooper-scooper ordinances (granted this was 10 years ago). I found it rather off-putting... there was crap everywhere.

Its the 'shame' of France, the dog shite everywhere. Dunno about Nice, but Lyon and Toulouse have a long way to go in educating dog owners.
I find a twelve gauge works well, but the police don't approve.

I don't know about France, but I'm curious about your user name.

I stumbled upon a beautiful little town up on a hill west of Nice a bit called Biot. I thought I found something truly unique and away from it all, but at a pub one night I heard that twangy Boston accent from my old hometown. Sure enough the guy lived a few blocks from me. Small world got smaller.
