Summer in the Principality is perfect, with the gentle lap of
the Mediterranean waves, warm sunshine, and a welcoming, relaxed atmosphere.
Monaco is also home to some superb gastronomical experiences. Here are four
fabulous new eateries to discover. Your tastebuds will thank you for it!
Maona
Monte-Carlo
A restaurant that aims to revive the legendary jet-set party nights of
the 60s and 70s... Jerry Lewis, Joséphine Baker, and Liza Minnelli are just
some of the stars who partied the balmy summer evenings away and soaked up the
dolce vita. This open-air cabaret hosts great live music and Monegasque
culinary traditions with typical family recipes from the region. Maona Monte-Carlo, whose name derives from a portmanteau of Maria and Onassis, better known
as the iconic couple Aristotle Onassis and the famous opera singer Maria
Callas, offers a vibrant atmosphere with live DJ sets, in a sumptuous setting
overlooking the Mediterranean.
Club La Vigie Monte-Carlo
Intimate bungalows, a party vibe, a picture-postcard backdrop featuring
a clear blue sea... Le Club La Vigie Monte-Carlo, the daytime summer beach club unveils all it has to offer, guaranteeing
a truly unique summer season that blends glamour and escapism, party afternoons
and a buzzing atmosphere. Discover this private club in June and enjoy
Mediterranean food, cocktails and great music. La Vigie reinvents the art of
fun for unique experiences in this stunning azure-tinged natural setting.
Muse
No, not one of the Greek goddesses, nor the British rock band, but
rather the exclusive venue at the Méridien Beach Plaza! Muse is the luxury hotel’s new summer restaurant, with a new design and a new
concept. Nestling beneath the pine trees and private beach, Muse is the ideal
place to take a moment and savour the dolce vita. With a cocktail bar, a menu
heavily inspired by local and Mediterranean cuisine, Sunday brunches, and DJ
sets, it’s the place to be this summer!
Les Ambassadeurs by Christophe Cussac
A century after the original venue closed its doors, Chef Christophe
Cussac is re-opening Les Ambassadeurs at the Hôtel Métropole Monte-Carlo! The
Belle Epoque establishment invites you to enjoy a unique and convivial culinary
experience with Les Ambassadeurs byChristophe Cussac. The restaurant pays tribute to the 1920s with modern and inventive
Mediterranean-inspired cuisine. An exceptional moment to be shared in a warm
and welcoming ambience created by Jacques Garcia.
