square sud sur Antibes

26/08/2026: There are dinners you simply eat... and others you experience. An evening at Le Figuier de Saint-Esprit in Antibes, in an absolutely magical setting where you dine under a fig tree. We chose the Le Figuier Menu, paired with wines, which included amuse-bouches, a starter, a main course, a pre-dessert, and a dessert. The dishes unfolded like true works of art, as beautiful as they were delicious, with surprising combinations and exquisitely precise cuisine from the first bite to the last. A huge thank you to Le Figuier de Saint-Esprit and Chef Christian Morisset for their warm welcome and this magnificent experience. If you are ever in Antibes, I highly recommend treating yourself to this culinary journey.

23/08/2026: After some very difficult times in my personal life, I was approached by some very pleasant young people my age. They gave me a lift in their car and bought me a drink on the terrace of this restaurant to chat the other evening. The servers were incredibly warm and professional, and I even went back today for dinner; it was delicious! Very well located and equipped, the food was excellent, and once again, the staff was more than up to the task. I highly recommend it to anyone passing through. Update one year later: "Terrace" dining is no longer available, only set menus and a full menu (so much less choice in what you want to order). The staff remains very pleasant and completely at odds with the now-changed atmosphere. It seems the intention is now to emphasize class differences by amplifying them with subtle, deliberate changes. Whereas last year I could spend €120 spread out over time, taking advantage of having time to work, etc., upon returning tonight I felt like I was being pushed out by the environment because I couldn't afford to spend €70 to €120 on a single meal. It's almost humiliating, and it's genuinely a shame to see the establishment change so much (no doubt to maximize profits); it's losing its soul.
