    you gotta goto the casino, must bring your passport and dress in a suit. (also take a look at the professional gold diggers around!!!)

    et voila, some older rtoc monkeys in the cafe outside!

    Matt, it's an awesome place. Talk about how the other half live!

    There's a nice, good value, restaurant that overlooks the straight between the Nouvelle chicane after the tunnel & Tabac corner (from the F1 circuit point of view), plus it's a good view of the harbour there as well. Their pizzas come highly recommended

    The restaurant that's right next door to the Casino isn't too badly priced, although defo check the menu before ordering steak & chips (for example )

    Take some tidy clothes & you'll be able to blag it into the Casino, and if you fancy a flutter, minimum stake last time I was there was 50 Euros per hand/game

    If you've got a car to hand, it's worth doing a 'lap' of the circuit, as is visiting Nice and St Tropez. Col de Turini is only 30 odd mile up the road as well

    Monte Carlo, Cheap??

    No honestly though theirs a nice pizzeria overlooking the bay on the road parallel to the one that climbs the hill to the casino which isn't too ££.

    During the day though the market stalls in the pit area is pretty good.

    Couple of years ago Millie & I went with the usual suspects off here & we won €60 Euro in the Casino so went outside & spent it ALL on an ice cream & a beer!!!!!!
