restaurant<\/h3>\n<p>Since <strong>2005<\/strong>, their restaurant, located on the <strong>place aux Huiles<\/strong>, just a few steps from <strong>Marseille\u2019s Vieux-Port<\/strong>, has become a must-visit address for lovers of <strong>Proven\u00e7al flavours<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>Paule, the chef who elevates Mediterranean cuisine<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Paule<\/strong>, head chef and the true beating heart of the restaurant, puts her know-how at the service of a <strong>generous<\/strong>, <strong>authentic<\/strong>, and <strong>100% homemade cuisine<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Trained in the <strong>culinary traditions of the South<\/strong>, she works with <strong>fresh<\/strong>, <strong>local ingredients<\/strong>, always with the same requirement: respect for flavour and sincerity in taste.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Her specialties?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Supions \u00e0 la proven\u00e7ale<\/strong>, <strong>stuffed vegetables<\/strong>, the <strong>traditional Marseille pieds paquets<\/strong>, and of course the famous <strong>S\u00f4cisse de Marseille<\/strong>, which helped build the restaurant\u2019s reputation. Every dish leaving her kitchen tells a story of terroir, sunshine, and conviviality.<\/p>\n<h3>Kopa, the master of the house and ambassador of conviviality<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Kopa<\/strong> is the voice, the smile and the welcoming soul of the restaurant. Always present in the dining room, he ensures that each guest enjoys a <strong>warm<\/strong> and <strong>friendly experience<\/strong>, in <strong>true Marseille fashion<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<p>Between good humour and genuine attentiveness, he embodies the spirit of the place: a restaurant where you <strong>feel at home<\/strong>, <strong>surrounded by friends<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to him, the service is smooth, attentive and human, echoing what Paule creates in the kitchen: harmony between flavour and guest comfort.<\/p>\n<h3>Jean-Marc, the restaurant\u2019s pizzaiolo<\/h3>\n<p>Alongside the founding duo, <strong>Jean-Marc<\/strong>, the restaurant\u2019s pizzaiolo, brings his Italian touch to the Mediterranean identity of Paule &amp; Kopa.<\/p>\n<p>His <strong>handmade pizzas<\/strong> with sun-filled flavours, prepared with a thin and soft dough, are among the restaurant\u2019s classics.<\/p>\n<p>Whether <strong>half-and-half<\/strong>, with <strong>anchovies<\/strong> or <strong>three cheeses<\/strong>, they can be enjoyed on site, on the terrace, or soon delivered throughout Marseille.<\/p>\n<h3>A story of passion and authenticity<\/h3>\n<p>By combining their talents, <strong>Paule, Kopa and Jean-Marc<\/strong> have created much more than a restaurant: a place of life, sharing, and <strong>local gastronomy<\/strong>, where every dish breathes the Mediterranean.<\/p>\n<p>It is no surprise that, over the years, <strong>Paule &amp; Kopa<\/strong> has become a <strong>key address in Marseille<\/strong>, beloved by locals, food lovers and even a few well-known local personalities.<\/p>\n<h3>A restaurant rooted in the heart of Marseille<\/h3>\n<p>Located on the lively <strong>place aux Huiles<\/strong>, one of the most vibrant spots around the Vieux-Port, Paule &amp; Kopa has become a symbol of Marseille\u2019s culinary spirit.<\/p>\n<p>Between its <strong>friendly atmosphere<\/strong>, <strong>authentic dishes<\/strong> and <strong>attentive service<\/strong>, the restaurant perfectly embodies the southern art of living.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>At Paule &amp; Kopa, every dish is <strong>prepared with heart<\/strong>, and every guest is welcomed as a friend.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='avia-button-wrap avia-button-center
