Cannes 2012

[LuckyGirl]

I've done a site search and looked through past posts on dining in Cannes but have found very little so I'm wondering if a new post/query might find new input.

I will be in Cannes for two weeks in October. My time in Cannes will be an even mix of cooking in and dining out. I would be appreciative of any and all suggestions for dining out. I enjoy all types of cuisine and am just as happy eating on the street as eating at a fine, starred restaurant. Most of the dining on this trip should be in the lower to moderate price range though one or two splurges is likely.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

La Palme D'Or's lunch menu (that isn't advertised on their website) offers a great option for a relatively budget friendly splurge. It's about €65 - €70 per head but includes everything: canapes, amuse, starter, main, desert, mignardises, coffee, water and wine (half bottle per head). The only thing not included is your aperitif, and it is hard to resist a glass of Champagne!
