Le Louis XV : Alain Ducasse

Le Louis XV is the flagship restaurant of chef Alain Ducasse. It is located inside the Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo, in Monte Carlo, Monaco. He opened the restaurant in May 1987, having been challenged by Prince Rainier III of Monaco and the Société des bains de mer de Monaco to win three Michelin stars there within four years, becoming the first hotel-based restaurant to win that level of the award.

Ducasse won the three stars for the restaurant 33 months later, some fifteen months earlier than his objective.

The wine cellar contains around 400,000 bottles of wine. A number of food trolleys are used by the waiters, including for champagne, cheese and one holding herbs to make herbal teas at the table-side.

Several chefs who went on to lead Michelin starred restaurants underwent training at Le Louis XV, including Alexis Gauthier and Clare Smyth.

Chefs Dominique Lory and Alain Ducasse have created a modern, authentic menu. Above all else, the fresh juices and sauces, intense and aromatic broths, and fresh condiments and spices reveal the precise flavors and seasoning of their culinary style.

During the renovation of the Hôtel de Paris, Le Louis XV-Alain Ducasse restaurant welcomes you on the garden floor of the new Rotunda wing.

La Réserve De La Mala

THE DECORATION
To be in paradise is worthy … So we try to be worthy of the natural scenery that is offered to us and, like Sisyphus, we work every year to preserve the soul of the Reserve of Mala, bringing constantly more beauty.

Upon entry, a beautiful arch invites you to enter another dimension.
A few steps down, the first belvedere welcomes the massage corner and the
shop … Come down again, here you are on the first floor, called “Champagne
Bar”. This terrace suspended between sky and sea, will welcome this year some
beds, for the pleasure of the most romantic …

Take another small staircase, here you are at the “restaurant” …
You can then sit on the huge shaded terrace, sheltering armchairs
in teak and mosaic tables, or in the “Vips squares” of the pontoon, small spaces
private, separated by white curtains. The pontoon also welcomes on its
part advanced the first lines of sunbeds.

Finally the beach, entirely dedicated to the “farniente” with a quality service feet in the water, is arranged in several lines of deckchairs and parasols (service restaurant entirely assured on the beach).

The kitchen ?
Exceptional for a beach …
Continuous from 12h to 23h, you can enjoy a French-inspired cuisine, revisited with audacity and talent by the now essential, Jean-Marc Troussard.

The Chef suggests you to taste his Tabouleh of quinoa with herbs, tataki tuna with black sesame and ginger confit. It will be nice to continue enjoying a heart of Scottish salmon “organic” with black sesame, wok vegetable simmered with soy, or for lovers of pasta, succulent Linguini Vongoles “Comme d’hab”. You will also find a wide choice of pizza …

Finally, and to conclude on a note of sweetness, discover Burger of meringue with raspberries in smoothie with white chocolate and crushed pistachios.

The majority of our fruits and vegetables come from organic farming, especially Grasse orchards and vegetable gardens.

In addition, our wine list presents a selection of must-see wines and some of the most prestigious Grands Crus.

Elsa Restaurant

Anyone who still believes that luxury and organic are incompatible, find here a denial of weight. Nestled in the Monte Carlo Roquebrune Beach Hotel, an upscale resort in the 1930s revived by the designer India Mahdavi, Elsa is a concentrate of Riviera. White terrace overlooking the Mediterranean, graphic and clear room with azure walls, everything is in place. This attractive table, awarded in the “culinary creativity” category at the 2014 Organic Place Awards, is also the first restaurant in France to be able to boast of being both 100% organic certified and the bearer of a Michelin star *. This award, made in February 2014, is a victory for chef Paolo Sari, who has been involved for three years in a cuisine of excellence that respects nature.

Flowers and plants mingle To serve this demanding gastronomy, Paolo Sari worked in the hinterland of Monaco in search of local gardeners able to deliver exquisite vegetables and fruits without pesticides, picked at the peak of their taste quality. Free for the chef to reveal and marry their raw flavors, an art refined in the four corners of the world. The menus vary over the weeks, depending on what these producers harvest. That’s why one of Elsa’s flagship dishes, a vegetal and floral entry called “Bio Sama”, is never really the same. The sabayon of red fruits either, which celebrates spring strawberries, raspberries or cherries during the summer, etc.

An air of Italy When he does not pick in his immediate surroundings, Paolo Sari relies on the best soils: salt of Guérande and extra virgin olive oil from the hinterland of Nice, herbes de Provence and black truffle from Périgord, mountain beans and green citrus from the coast … Of course, Paolo Sari does not deny his native country, Italy, which is only a few kilometers from Monaco. Sanremo prawns, old parmesan artichokes, spaghetti, capelleti, gnocchi and risotto, Pantelleria capers and iced cappuccino are all on the menu.

A resort in organic clothes Sunday, brunch day, the chef exposes the arrivals of the day, rough. The guests choose what whets their appetite and the maestro cooks them especially. A privilege that requires, as for other meals, to book well in advance. Especially since the honors of Michelin have placed Elsa in the spotlight, the number of seats is limited (30 indoor, 30 on the terrace), and the stoves only run between March and October. If you want to extend your stay, know that the resort that houses it, owned by the Society of Sea Baths (held 70% by the Monegasque government), has converted its three catering points to 100% organic . Until the mini-bar in the rooms! A rarity that deserves a detour …

*: Other starred chefs very committed to the organic had not yet official certification for the restoration in spring 2014, when Paolo Sari was distinguished.

Buddha Bar Monaco

The incredible story behind the Buddha-Bar Monte-Carlo

This exceptional place popped up in 2010 on the former site of Monte-Carlo’s old Cabaret, a venue that once stood in the heart of the Monte-Carlo Casino in the early 20th century.

The Buddha-Bar Monte-Carlo boasts epic, sweeping spaces, with the ceiling raised seven meters high and a harmonious combination of oak paneling and sculptures, pilasters, molding, stucco and gilding. Fascinating décor and extraordinary dimensions to match the prestige of its locations and its host, a giant meditating Buddha straight from Asia, and the Buddha-Bar’s central point. The bar’s guardian watches over guests, infused with a sense of deep serenity.

Elegant musical design in a refined Lounge Bar

At the Buddha-Bar Monte-Carlo, more surprises await: Papadia Donato, aka DJ Papa, is the bar’s other star resident. From behind his decks, the resident DJ watches over the Lounge Bar, distilling minimalist musical treats in a subtle fusion of lounge, chill-out and world music, all delicately seasoned with a handful of ethnic beats and electro. A leading name in the clubbing world, the Buddha-Bar selection provides the perfect backdrop as you tuck into sashimis, makis, sushis and other Asian gems, sipping at a glass of sake or one of the House’s signature cocktails. Two open-air terraces complete the overall effect of this idyllic setting made for enjoying the warm balminess of summer nights.

An adventure in a plate

Dinner at the Buddha-Bar is a journey for the senses. Delve into a culinary experience with flavors that whisk you away, where the fragrances of China, Japan, Thailand and South-East Asia mingle indulgently with the tastes of the West. To each dish its magic. To each forkful its surprises. Heading up the team, Chef Eric Guillemaudinvents and innovates, moving easily between bursts of Asian flavor and French excellence. Wagner Spadacio, winner of the the 1st French Sushi Championships in 2017 is now chef of Japanese cuisine at Buddha-Bar Monte-Carlo.
