Review by Dennis Broadfield - visited 20th of May 2008
The generosity of some of Totally Riviera’s clients can be quite astounding at times. A last minute invitation to the eponymous Joel Robuchon restaurant at the Hotel Metropole in Monaco was always going to be an adventure and a serious treat - and a very […]
Article by Raymond Blanc published in the Times Newspaper 24th of May, 2008
WEARING a pink bib, and with the crashing noise of the waves below me on one of the most beautiful coastlines in France, I’m enjoying the best bouillabaisse I’ve ever had.
I’m not in Marseilles, where the typical fish platter is often made for […]

The lowdown
Nice is the de facto capital of the Côte d’Azur, a Grande Dame the French often dismiss as being pour les riches et les vieux - for the rich and the old. But it has been recently transformed into a vibrant, cultural city. Although […]
Review by Nicole Wright, Monaco private banker by day - restaurant sleuth by night. Blink and you will miss it. Tucked away between a florists and piano shop, La Sapore, just behind Place Garibaldi, is easy to overlook. For six months I did just that until one day curiosity got the better of me and […]

Review by DENNIS BROADFIELD.
It’s a truism that frequent travellers of a hedonistic disposition know only to well. After the irksome, time consuming and agressive free-for-all that is part of the post 9/11 airport check-in and travel experience, there is a desire to spoil yourself upon your arrival in direct proportion to the horrors of the […]
Le Tire Bouchon - review by Kari Clouston
Located on rue de la Prefecture, the Old Town’s designated posh road, you can discover one of the areas most recommended restaurant - Le Tire Bouchon. Perfectly positioned with the glamorous Palais du Justice, 30 seconds to the left and Caprioglio’s family run ‘cave a vin’ 20 seconds […]
Safari Restaurant -
It’s very fashionable for the French in Nice to dismiss any restaurant on the Cours Saleya, because, they say with a slightly superior expression, that this famous stretch of restaurants and markets in the Old Town is only for tourists. Like all sweeping generalisations there is a kernel of truth to what they […]
Papayou Restaurant – review by Dennis Broadfield.One of my favourite restaurants in the Old Town, Papayou, is just around the corner from our office and is owned and run by two of the nicest restaurateurs in Nice. Thierry Broguet and Mariana Bagni travel widely when they shut their restaurant over winter, and have fallen in […]
Indyana restaurant – Review by Dennis Broadfield
Indyana is a quality restaurant off the tourist trail, populated, especially at lunch, by local lawyers, stylish businessmen and women, and chic fashonista’s trying to make an impression. In many other restaurants this melange would spell style-over-substance, with a predictably self-conscience menu, but not here. I have regularly visited […]
