Use of avec instead of à

I was surprised by the phrase “ Ce que j’aime le plus avec Albertville “ Is it equally correct to say, “ Ce que j’aime le plus à Albertville “?

Hi Neil, 

It should be -

à Albertville

and this anglicism slipped through the net, so we are looking at fixing it.

Prepositions are very tricky as you probably know and if you were talking about what you like most about a person you would use 'chez' -

Ce que j'aime le plus chez elle, c'est sa joie de vivre What I love most about her is her joie de vivre

C'est ce que j'aime chez toi !That's what I I love  about you!

Bonne Continuation !
