Three Presidents of the French Republic have walked the sumptuous halls of the Palais Princier: General De Gaulle on 23 October 1960, François Mitterrand on 19 January 1984 and finally Jacques Chirac on 25 July 1997, marking the strong links between the two nations as well as their shared taste for a certain Art de Vivre and vision of gastronomy.
Michelin-starred chefs Marcel Ravin**, Dominique Lory* and Yannick Alleno* will be using their expertise to recreate feasts enjoyed by these leaders, which are so dear to the heart of H.S.H. Prince Albert II.
“You don't have to be a big country to have big dreams, nor do you have to be many to achieve them”. - H.S.H. Le Prince Rainier III
Tradition, excellence, modernity: these three words beautifully encapsulate French chef Yannick Alléno and the Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer. In that case, where would be a more natural home for this world-famous restaurateur with three Michelin stars than the Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo’s gastronomic restaurant.
