Yes, there is French food in Pondicherry. Everywhere! Here is a rillette at Maison de Rose. Following the French guy who buys 16 baguettes at Baker Street every single weekday at 10:30 paid off.
Also, the space at Maison de Rose is excellent.
That’s a new front for me — stalking for food. I recommend it!

Finding a greek salad, a perfect croissant, and perfect baguettes in Pondicherry is a delight! Enjoying a coffee eclair and a strong latte to polish it off just throws you off a little bit… Alright back to where I left off tomorrow… Indian food it is!

Here is a celebration of the colonial history of Pondicherry!
We had honey preserved figs and amla (Indian gooseberry) topping a piece of camambert on a crusty baguette.
And a sandwich with tuna, camambert, cucumbers, peppers and the honey preserved figs…
Maybe not as creamy a camembert as I would have liked but for the first Western bite that I took in about 7-8 weeks, I’ll say it’ll do.
