Best Restaurants in Cote d'Azur & Provenc
Someone wrote: Actually, the best restaurant in the French Riviera would be Louis XVI at the Hotel de paris in Monte Carlo. Alain Ducasse is the chef there and the meal would set one back about $400-500 for two. It's the only 3 star in the region as Roger Verge lost his 3rd star 2 years ago...

While on the Haute Corniche (but not on the same day), don't miss Le Ferme St.Michel. It's an indoor/outdoor informal hall. It's a multi-course extravaganza of home-grown crudites (a whole basket of fresh veggies), Fresh grilled meat (pork was tremendous, but they also have chicken), trays of sausages, all the vin du pays you can swill, an embarrasment of desserts, and some home-concocted eau-de-vie to polish off. My wife and I hiked up from St. Jean Cap-Ferrat (NOT RECOMMENDED), and met some friendly revellers who shared their Champagne and a ride back down the hill. Not haute cuisine by any means, but among the most memorable meals (and experiences) I had in the South of France >
