I’m certain that this is not a complete list, but don’t miss these culinary treats if you’re traveling to the following towns on the Côte d’Azur.
Antibes
- Gelateria del Porto (great place to enjoy a gelato and do some people-watching)
Gorbio
- Les Terrasses (temporarily closed, but hope it re-opens soon)
Menton
- Atelier Boulanger (I should be embarrassed by how many visits I made to this gem.)
- L’Orangerie
- La Cure Gourmande (has several locations in France)
- La Pecoranegra (can’t wait to try the Lyon location)
- Little Italy (Yes, I went twice. The waiter remembered my order and reminded me to skip the appetizer, so that I could finish my Baked Gnocchi!) https://www.restaurant-italien-menton.fr/
- JR Bistronomie (elegant and highly rated; reservations necessary)
- Tutti Frutti and Gelateria Sofia, tied for amazing gelato
Villefranche-sur-Mer
- Glacier Ferraci (delicious gelato and a friendly vibe)
Ventimiglia
