Pan Bagnat · Nice
Pan bagnat is the Nicois tuna sandwich on a round bread soaked in olive oil, tomatoes, hard boiled egg, anchovies, olives, raw vegetables and basil, never any cooked vegetables.
Pan bagnat means soaked bread in Nissart, the old portable lunch for Nicois fishermen and market workers that combines the same components as a salade nicoise on a round bread. The Cuisine Nissarde label specifies no cooked vegetables, no mayonnaise and the use of canned tuna or anchovy and tomato as the protein base. Lou Pilha Leva is the canonical Vieux Nice address.
