Where To Eat

La Colombe D'Or Place Géneral de Gaulle 06570 St-Paul-de-Vence The restaurant at the Colombe d'Or Hotel has a very rustic and old fashioned feel to it. Matisse, Miró and Picasso were all regulars back in the day, so their paintings consequently adorn the walls. La Mere Besson 13 rue des Frères-Pradignac 06400 Cannes Hidden away in a tiny street a mere 100 yards from La Croisette, this restaurant provides traditional Provencal cooking. Its daily specials range from beef stew to stuffed rabbit, and it serves the best piperade in the world. The restaurant is often quiet at lunch, but it gets crowded in the evenings so be sure to book a table. La Palme D'Or At Hotel Martinez 73 La Croisette 06406 Cannes This is a suitably expensive two Michelin-star restaurant, but the food is delicious. The Alsatian chef, Christian Willer, prepares dishes in a Gatsby-esque Art Deco dining room and on their terrific bigterrace overlooking the Mediterranean. [Photos via, via]
