No visit to northern France would be complete without a leisurely meal at one of the region's numerous restaurants. Authentic local food can be found in "estaminets" ( family-style cafe-restaurants or inns). You might like to sample the waffels filled with sugar, Maroilles cheese and delicious local beer.

Maltese Olive oil has a distinct, rich, fruity flavour and aroma on account of the Islands' favourable climate and soil. MonteKristo Olive Oil brings these attributes to the fore by following stringent, quality- controlled methods of extraction. It is extracted from handpicked Maltese olives at maturity. The olives are crushed under temperature- controlled conditions. Filtration is by natural decanting which gives the oil a rich, slightly cloudy hue which is the defining mark of a quality olive oil. This methodology results in a fruity and appetising oil on best Malts's typical bread - hobz. Tel: 2123 1448 www.montekristo.com
