After a star-studded reopening last year, this legendary French Riviera hotspot is the place to be this summer
Last summer, I had the chance to experience the rebirth of Palm Beach firsthand and let me tell you—this is the place to be for your Euro Summer 2025. Now that word has spread worldwide about its dazzling comeback, Palm Beach is set to attract an even more elite crowd this year, making it a must-visit for the rich, famous, and those who want to live like them.
While Palm Beach has long been synonymous with luxury, its new dining scene has cemented it as a culinary powerhouse. Over the past year, globally renowned restaurants and clubs have settled into their new Riviera home, making it the ultimate spot for indulging in world-class cuisine.
Nammos Beach Club & Restaurant has brought its Mykonos party vibes to the shores of Cannes, attracting superyacht owners and jet-setters who come for the beachside luxury and stay for the Champagne-fueled afternoons.
Zuma, the upscale Japanese Izakaya, made its highly anticipated French debut, delivering its signature blend of sophisticated yet electric dining to the Riviera.
La Petite Maison, the beloved Niçoise institution, has redefined elegant Mediterranean dining, with its refined yet effortlessly chic atmosphere drawing an international clientele.
Medusa, famous for its eclectic dinner and cabaret soirées, is the place to go when the sun sets, offering a theatrical dining experience unlike any other on the Riviera.
Tamarin, a St. Barths favorite, made its European debut, bringing its laid-back yet upscale South American-inspired cuisine to Cannes.
Whether it's long, rosé-filled lunches by the sea or glamorous late-night dining, Palm Beach has become a global culinary destination, attracting Hollywood stars, fashion icons, and billionaires looking to dine in style. And now the rest of us can get a taste too!
While the legendary 43m saltwater pool—immortalized in the classic film Any Number Can Win—has been restored to its cinematic glory, the new Palm Beach Cannes is about more than just nostalgia. It has been reimagined for the modern elite, featuring a state-of-the-art fitness center, an ultra-exclusive private members' club, and luxury boutiques from the world's most prestigious brands.
The 1,200m² Alain Delon-inspired ballroom has already played host to some of the year's most glamorous parties and private events, bringing back the spirit of the Roaring Twenties soirées that once defined Palm Beach's legendary reputation.
Last summer, Palm Beach's reopening sent shockwaves through the international luxury scene, and now, it has officially become the go-to Riviera hotspot for 2025. Situated perfectly between Monaco and St. Tropez, with easy access from Nice International Airport, it has seamlessly integrated into the global elite's summer circuit, joining the ranks of Ibiza, Capri, and Mykonos as a must-visit destination for the rich and famous.
If last summer was about the world discovering Palm Beach was back, this summer is about securing your spot at the most sought-after destination in Europe. From yacht-side beach parties to high-profile dinners under the stars, Palm Beach Cannes is the place to see and be seen in 2025. Consider this your invitation—if you can get in!

The Shellfish You Shouldn't Order At A Restaurant, According To Anthony Bourdain
We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. Anthony Bourdain was hardly reluctant to share his recommendations and laments about the food and hospitality industries. Whether barraging the concept of awards ceremonies or raving about local hot dog stands, Bourdain was vocal about his opinions, including advising curious gourmands how to best travel, eat well, and experience all that life has to offer. In his book "Kitchen Confidential: Adventures In The Culinary Underbelly," Bourdain set out a list of instructions to help restaurant goers improve their meals with smart orders and thoughtful decisions. In addition to advising customers to stay away from ordering fish on Mondays from establishments in which the freshness might be questioned, Bourdain also veered away from plates of mussels. "I don't eat mussels in restaurants unless I know the chef, or have seen, with my own eyes, how they store and hold their mussels for service," he wrote. "I love mussels. But, in my experience, most cooks are less than scrupulous in their handling of them." For a man who had seen his share of kitchen inner workings, this kind of advice holds considerable weight. Read more: Anthony Bourdain's 12 Favorite Spots To Eat And Drink At In The South Taking Calculated Culinary Risks Though mussels might be one of the things to avoid ordering at a restaurant, putting together recipes at home is certainly not off the table. Bowls of creamy garlic mussels or coconut curry mussels can target cravings for this dish, all while you are certain of the level of sanitary handling and quality of product. As Bourdain recognized, if just one mussel is off in a bowl of the mollusks, it could cause seriously unpleasant consequences for those digging into the meal. "It takes only a single bad mussel, one treacherous little guy hidden among an otherwise impeccable group," he penned, before adding that if the urge to sample a mussel might strike, Bourdain would not shy away from plucking the best-looking mussels off the plate of a friend. In addition to questioning servings of mussels, Bourdain was also skeptical of hollandaise sauce as he said it was unlikely to be made to order and could be a breeding ground for bacteria. He also avoided any kind of special offering that might be made up of kitchen scraps: Shepherd's pie and chili, for example, for similar reasons. Though ultimately the call is yours, it is worth considering the reputation of the restaurant and the cleanliness of the establishment before placing your order.

Ichiro Suzuki becomes comedian during Baseball Hall of Fame induction speech
COOPERSTOWN, NY. — The day was filled with passionate speeches, inspirational messages, and ended Sunday with a comedy show by the least suspecting Hall of Famer, with most of the audience unaware he even spoke English. Ichiro Suzuki, the first Japanese Hall of Famer in baseball history, brought down the house with one of the most humorous speeches since the late Bob Uecker. Suzuki, who has had a full-time interpreter since he arrived in the United States in 2001, delivered his entire speech in English, cracking jokes with a perfect delivery, entertaining the crowd of 30,000 at the Hall of Fame induction ceremony. He was one of five players inducted in the 76th induction ceremony, joined by CC Sabathia, Billy Wagner and the late Dick Allen and Dave Parker. 'People often measure me by my records,'' Suzuki said. '3,000 hits, 10 Gold Gloves, 10 seasons of 200 hits. Not bad, huh? But the truth is that without baseball, you would say, 'This guy is such a dumbass.'" Suzuki's comedy act was just beginning, reciting baseball stats, his 3,089 hits, his record 262-hit season, and saying how his career was recognized by the Baseball Writers Association of America, but it still wasn't good enough for the one anonymous writer who didn't vote for him, preventing him from joining Mariano Rivera as the only unanimous Hall of Famers in history. He paused, listened to the laughter from the crowd, and then with a perfect delivery said, 'Oh, by the way, and that offer for that writer to have dinner at my house has now ... expired.'' He thanked the Seattle Mariners and Hall of Fame GM Pat Gillick for believing in him and signing him in 2001, thanked the New York Yankees for his 2 ½ years with them, and Hall of Famer Derek Jeter for his valuable leadership. And then thanked the Miami Marlins for extending his career for three more years, but with a twist: 'Honestly, when you guys called to offer me a contract for 2015,'' Suzuki said, pausing again, 'I had never heard of your team.'' Suzuki's teammates all knew that he spoke perfect English, and had a delightful sense of humor, but now the baseball world became clued into his secret. 'I played with him for three years, so I knew he could do that,'' Sabathia said. 'I was just excited for people to get to know his personality and how funny he is.'' In the press conference after the ceremony, Suzuki said there was never any thought to delivering his speech in Japanese, saying it was important to him to provide humor to the fans and baseball officials in attendance in Cooperstown, while also making sure everyone understood the importance of respecting the game. 'I always said that being a Hall of Famer wasn't a goal,'' Suzuki said, 'but to make people laugh here was a goal of mine.'' The only time Suzuki spoke Japanese during his entire speech was thanking Hideo Nomo for giving him the courage to play Major League Baseball. 'Because of Hideo's courage,'' Suzuki said, my eyes opened to the idea of challenging myself by going somewhere I never imagined.' Nomo was the first Japanese player in 30 years to play in MLB in 1995, pitching for the Los Angeles Dodgers, and was an inspiration to Suzuki, who wrote an essay when he was in the sixth grade that he wanted to be a professional baseball player. 'I think you can imagine, there was much doubt when I tried to become the first position player from Japan in MLB,' he said. 'But it was more than just that. There was criticism and negativity. Someone even said to me, 'Don't embarrass the nation.' 'I encourage young players to dream, and dream big, but to also understand the difference between your dream and the goal. In order to make your dream your goal, you must be honest in thinking about what is important to achieve it.'' CC Sabathia hopes to see more Blacks in baseball Sabathia stressed throughout his speech and afterwards in a press conference, that he wants to do everything in his power to make sure he's not the last Black pitcher inducted into the Hall of Fame. He wants to be a role model in hopes of increasing the Black population of baseball, declining to just 6% on opening-day rosters this season. 'When I first started watching baseball, and Dave Parker was crushing homers,'' Sabathia said, 'the number of black players in the major leagues was at its highest, about 18%. Me and my friends played the game because we saw all of those guys on TV. There was always somebody who looked like me in a baseball unfiorm. 'Baseball has always been a great game for Black athletes, but the baseball culture has not always great for Black people. I hope we're starting to turn that around. ... 'I'm sitting here and thinking about it now, 'Who's next? Who's the next Black starting pitcher to win 20 games? Will there be another? I don't want to be the final Black pitcher standing here giving a Hall of Fame speech. I think it's on me and the next generation to find that next kid.'' Sabathia's speech also was effusive in praise for the women in his life, from his mother, Margie, to his aunts and grandmother, Ethel Rufus, raising him in Vallejo, California. He wouldn't be on stage this day, he said, if not for the love and support of his wife, Amber. His mother used to put on catcher's equipment to help him work on his pitching mechanics, and even talking about pitch selection in the garage. And he spent plenty of nights at his grandmother's house where he would pick grapefruits from her tree and throw them at a folding chair used as a strikezone in the back yard. When he wanted to work at Marine World as a teenager, his grandmother wouldn't let him, telling him he needed to focus on baseball. 'You'd be lucky to have even one of those women in your life,'' Sabathia said, 'and I had them all. A village of women who raised me, guided me, made me laugh, fed me, protected me, and a few times, literally save me, starting with my mom.'' Billy Wagner's wait finally ends Wagner, who had to wait until the 10th and final year of eligibility to enter the Hall of Fame while Suzuki and Sabathia made it on the first ballot, thanked dozens of teammates from Jeff Bagwell to Russ Springer to his pitching coaches to bullpen catchers to managers to writers. Wagner, 5-foot-10, is the second pitcher to be inducted under six feet tall. 'I wasn't the biggest, I wasn't left-handed [until twice breaking his right arm], I wasn't supposed to be here,' Wagner said. 'Perseverance isn't just a trait. It's a path to greatness. 'Being up here today, I feel like my baseball life has come full circle.' Dave Parker: Poet Parker, who died last month after battling Parkinson's since 2012, was able to let his son, David Parker II, present just what he wanted to say in his Hall of Fame speech, and wrote a poem before he passed. Here I am, 39. About damn time. I know I had to wait a little, but that's what you do with fine aged wine. I'm a Pirate for life. Wouldn't have it no other way. That was my family, even though I didn't go on Parade Day. I love y'all, the Bucs on my heart because those two championships I got, y'all played in the first part. I'm in the Hall now, you can't take that away. That statue better look good -- you know I got a pretty face. Top-tier athlete, fashion icon, sex symbol. No reason to list the rest of my credentials. I'm him, period. The Cobra. Known for my rocket arm, and I will run any catcher over. To my friends, families: I love y'all. Thanks for staying by my side. I told y'all Cooperstown would be my last ride.'' Dick Allen presented by his widow Allen's widow, Willa Allen, spoke for the Allen family, letting people know that her husband was a kind and passionate man, and was much more than just a Hall of Fame ballplayer. She told the story about the time a 16-year-old fan asked for his autograph at Dodger Stadium. They talked for two hours, and Allen wound up helping him throughout his life. He was in attendance Sunday at the age of 70. "It's not about where you come from, but where you're determined to go,'' Allen said. 'It's about principle, passion and determination.'' When the ceremony ended, the players retreated to the Otesaga Hotel where they had a dinner for Hall of Fame players only. No family members. No friends. Just the players and commissioner Rob Manfred. But, before they got together and sat down, Suzuki had a request to his new Hall of Fame teammates. 'I hope I can hold the values of the Hall of Fame,'' Suzuki said. 'But please, I am 51 years old now. So easy on the hazing.'' Follow Bob Nightengale on X @Bnightengale.

In a statement on social media, the Japanese designer wrote that the 'time has come for what has become a symphony, to close.'

The Japanese designer founded the namesake brand 15 years ago, just after exiting his subversive label, (N)umber Nine, in 2009. Despite Miyashita's exit, The Soloist has plans to continue the business.

Just on a different stage. A new band, a new noise, catch me.'
