You're Invited: A Côte d'Azur Thanksgiving


Once again, the American Club of the Riviera will celebrate Thanksgiving in Monaco, with a gala luncheon starting at 12:30 on Thursday, November 27. The event is open to all...and members of the US Air Force will be hosted (and toasted!) as the special guests of honor. The menu is, of course, an American feast of turkey and all the trimmings...with a Champagne reception to kick things off. As the usual venue, the Hotel de Paris, is closed for renovations, the event will take place in the splendid Salon Belle Epoque of its sister hotel, the Hermitage. Somewhere between 150 to 200 people are expected.

Full details (including pricing, directions, parking and reservations) are on the group's website here. Questions? Contact Burton Gintell: +33 (0)6 20 40 11 28, bgintell@aol.com. 

 *If you know of other Thanksgiving celebrations open to the public in Provence or on the French Riviera, please leave a note under comments, below.

      Barney, thank you...that's great to know! Will you be here for Thanksgiving? If not, perhaps someone would like to rent your lovely apartment and have their holiday chez Cecile!
