Beau Rivage in Nice France ~ Views, meals and comfort!

September 9, 2013 by Denis 1 Comment

 

Beau Rivage in Nice France. A plage (French word for beach) whole allure and charm will make you quickly forget Myrtle Beach, Virginia Beach, Venice Beach and other beaches of the world.

The azur blue sky was back in its full glory today, but this time there was a stronger wind creating bigger waves on the beach and a more refreshing breeze ashore.

My plans to try a different topless beach along the Nice shore were derailed by our love of everything that Plage Beau Rivage offers, its comfort, its gastronomic food, its service, its views, etc… Why go elsewhere on such a glorious day!

So we spent the whole afternoon enjoying another leisurely luncheon at Plage Beau Rivage. The Cesar Salad we started with was the best I have had in a very long time.

It was followed by a tender Saumon Roti au Four et son Pistou de Shiso Rouge, Riz Parfume aux Epices Douces (oven roasted salmon with red shiso pesto, rice flavored with mild spices). And finally, since we had loved so much the speculos ice cream we had been served on our previous visit, we splurged with the same moelleux au chocolat et sa creme glacee au speculos (chocolate melting cake with speculoos ice cream) but asked for a double portion of the ice cream!

We had another “cracker day” (an Irish expression I picked up from the Northern Ireland couple we befriended at Plage Beau Rivage) at the beach!
