Country #26: Monaco   Highlights   Perfect way to have a meal in three countries in one day. Breakfast in France, lunch in Monaco and dinner in Italy. Best to take the train there. The coastal traffic gets very congested. There’s also a bit of a taxi racket in Monaco and the local taxi scheme could cost you over 200 euros after the trains shut down.    The Grand Hotel on Cap Ferrat is exquisite. https://www.fourseasons.com/capferrat/dining/restaurants/la_veranda/ A burger there will set you back 50euros (2015). Don’t say I didn’t warn you!   Joel Robuchon  - classic 99euro egg dish (2017) https://www.eater.com/2018/8/8/17655446/joel-robuchon-michelin-latelier-mashed-potatoes-pommes-puree   Want answers?
