Brunch 2.0: Why Monaco’s weekend ritual just got a Robuchon upgrade

For those who find traditional buffet brunches overwhelming or impersonal, Robuchon Monaco has created a delicious alternative. The weekend brunch experience offers a fully à la carte, all-you-can-enjoy menu, where guests are invited to order anything they wish, as many times as they like – all for a set price.

At Le Deli Robuchon, the Saturday brunch is priced at €75, while Sunday brunch at Le Petit Robuchon is offered at €95. Both include unlimited soft drinks, dishes from the menu, and a complimentary glass of champagne, specially selected by the house sommelier.

The highlight is, of course, the food – a refined blend of Robuchon’s perfected French classics with Italian flair, seasonal ingredients, and a sense of fun that makes it perfect for families and food lovers alike.

A menu made to linger over

This is not a brunch to rush. The experience can begin with a parade of petit plats that tempt the eyes as much as the palate. Start with a selection of toasts, or indulge in the utterly moreish cheese and ham croissant, a true standout.

Egg lovers will be spoiled for choice: from perfectly poached eggs Benedict, arguably the best in Monaco, to truffled scrambled eggs so rich and fragrant they could easily pass for dinner. Lighter starters include foie gras, the creamiest burrata with cherry tomatoes, and a silky carrot and cumin soup that’s unexpectedly memorable.

For something truly indulgent, don’t miss the truffle croque monsieur – a dish that somehow manages to be both decadent and comforting. Mains include classic Robuchon fair – veal blanquette, roast chicken, the famous Robuchon burger – which is always a hit with younger guests, while salmon gravlax with homemade mustard offers a delicately balanced bite for more grown-up tastes.

Smoothies, from detox blends to tropical mixes, offer a refreshing pause between courses. And for those inclined to finish on a sweet note, the pastry selection – presented with signature Robuchon finesse – is nothing short of a masterclass in French patisserie.

Elegant settings, impeccable service

Both venues offer distinctly Monaco experiences. Le Deli Robuchon, tucked into the charming Rue Saint-Laurent, feels cosy and welcoming, with a sunny terrace perfect for people-watching on warmer days. Le Petit Robuchon, located in Portier, brings a more modern bistro atmosphere, with the same impeccable service and a touch of Monaco flair.

From the warmth of the staff to the rhythm of the meal, every detail has been thoughtfully considered. Families with children will find a relaxed and welcoming vibe, while couples and friends can linger over long conversations and even longer tastings.
