Grand Café de Turin Nice, France

Situated in attractive Place Garibaldi, this is one of the city's most authentic café-bars that has been around since the 1950s. Highlights include a superb terrace with delightful archways. The restaurant serves wonderful seafood all day (even at breakfast), and shellfish are always fresh. Reservations are not accepted, and the café is often full by 7p, so be sure to arrive early. Specialties of the house include Scampi Salad with roasted asparagus and Parmesan, and a Sea Bream Socca with vegetables. Four-course menus begin at around EUR30.
