St.-Tropez: Where to Eat: Cocktails: La Villa Romana

La Villa Romana

This is the St.-Tropez you’ve read about in the glossies: waiters sometimes sport leopard-print outfits, the Venetian and Baroque decor incorporates plenty of red and purple velvet, scantily clad models parade by while diners tuck into caviar and blinis or lobster with apples and grapefruit. A good place for a giant cocktail and for VIP-spotting.
