There are just 12 days to Christmas - we'll never get everything done in time.
What's new?
Today is the start of the Monaco Dance Forum Festival, with workshops, performances, master classes and more.
The countdown to Christmas has begun, with Sunday shopping in the Metropole, afternoon entertainment on the boulevard des Moulins, and traditional treats on offer around town. Joel Robuchon has prepared no less than 3 yule logs at Met'Cafe, and the Meridien's Julien Beaulieu offers 2 delicious sounding creations, smothered with either red fruits or white chocolate. If you've already planned your food purchases, the Brasserie de Monaco can add a tasty tipple to your table with its Christmas brew, available to take away in 3 litre bottles.
