Three Presidents of the French Republic have walked the sumptuous halls of the Palais Princier: General De Gaulle on 23 October 1960, François Mitterrand on 19 January 1984 and finally Jacques Chirac on 25 July 1997, marking the strong links between the two nations as well as their shared taste for a certain Art de Vivre and vision of gastronomy.
Michelin-starred chefs Marcel Ravin**, Dominique Lory* and Yannick Alleno* will be using their expertise to recreate feasts enjoyed by these leaders, which are so dear to the heart of H.S.H. Prince Albert II.

After receiving the honour of a second star in the Michelin Guide, the Blue Bay, located at the heart of the Monte-Carlo Bay Hotel & Resort, is undergoing a transformation. A new layout, new décor, a new terrace and new culinary creations... For Marcel Ravin, one of the most talented chefs of his generation, it is a dream come true. The fruit of conviction and confidence in his culinary approach. His signature style is innovative, generous and authentic. And his food is a bridge between the five continents and his native Martinique. We meet the man who leads the kitchens of the Blue Bay with passion, creativity and an infinite love of taste and pleasure.
