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 :D )

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 :eek:

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 ;) :cool:

:laugh: Monte Carlo, Cheap?? :laugh: :laugh:

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!!!!!!
