Some big names in football will be arriving in Monaco on Monday.
What's new?
On the restaurant scene, 7 places have just received their diamond classification, reflecting service, furnishing and price. As Autumn has arrived, Un Cafe Theatre is now closed in the evenings except for one theme night a week. Other places remain open, with Monte Carlo Bay's restaurant Blue Bay hoping to attract customers by using iPads to show pictures of dishes on the menu.
Villa Paloma is closed for a couple of weeks while the recent Oceanomania exhibition is dismantled, and 3 new exhibitions are mounted. The gallery reopens on 16th October, Monaco's heritage day.
