Restaurant Don Camillo Creations popped up on my radar screen while we were searching for a perfect restaurant in Nice, France. First, it appeared on the list of places to visit as a result of my Internet research of restaurants in this city - ratings looked promising. Later, when a concierge in our hotel recommended to visit it, we decided to visit it. Here is my brief account (call it review if you want) of our impressions and observations.

The number of places where to eat in Nice is staggering - something you would expect from the fifth city in France which is also a major tourist center and a leading resort on Côte d'Azur. However, if you are looking for something more than just decent, if you are a gourmand in search of examples of fine Niçois cuisine, you will find that there are surprisingly few restaurants for a city with population of nearly 350 thousand people that may deserve any special attention. Having spent quite some time in search of good restaurants in Nice, here is my recommendation - restaurant Luc Salsedo, which I without hesitation proclaim the best in town.

If you are trying to find information on the Internet about St.Tropez, you will quickly learn that the whole knowledge about this community and town evolves around very few topics: (1) it's a place for rich people (including movie starts, supermodels, etc.) to go and spent money with their multimillion yachts; (2) the place became popular after Brigitte Bardot "put on a bikini" to star in "And God Created Woman" (1960); (3) the name of the town originates from the Torpes - a Nero's centurion who refused to forsake his religion and was beheaded in 1055. I would like to offer a different view of St. Tropez.
