The vegetable garden is magnificent. The size of the vegetables are truly amazing!

I love when the Prince switches from French to American when speaking. Thank you Princess Grace for raising your son to be such a wonderful and decent man.❤️

[@threexladi]

Is he wonderful and decent to his children?

[@gorillachilla]

Fk are you saying thank you for ?

[@chs1183]

Chef knows his game inside out. Yet he is so humble the expression on his face after the prince says he is satisfied is priceless

[@mukunimulundika5359]

I loved that French and Italian exchange between the chef and Francesco. Very interesting. Languages are so interesting.

[@lisaharrington6488]

The gardens are splendid. It is very nice to see a Monarch act so personably with his Staff. He treats them with courtesy and respect and in turn his Staff treats him the same.

[@minkles1330]

That garden is just amazing, no wonder they protect it :)

[@zimasamadikizela2346]

Woooow I'm so impressed the Prince has his own farm and a garden, that tops. Greetings from South Africa

[@normacascio9041]

I enjoyed this documentary very much. Head chef Christian should be very proud of himself and his staff. They prepare the meals with perfection in mind every time. Prince Rainier and and Princess Grace would be so proud of their son and family for carrying on the traditions that were handed down to them.

[@bisafontoura]

Very Congratulations Chef Christian Garcia!! You make your work so perfect!

[@nanouklezaf4273]

Christian seems to genuinely love what he does, it's great to see people make a living of their passion, especially in a so elegant location.

See the chef he is not under pressure and pay is good. Ur tension is pay. Always it will remain how ur keeping ur family happy after ur doing justice to ur job.

[@kellysunserenity4068]

I like the idea of the chefs photographing the final product of each dish/course. Very smart.

[@austrorus]

we do that every time, not only when the TV is there. ALSO when there are big banquets one portion of each dish, from starter to dessert, is being packed in a one way container and kept for 36 hours. god forbid someone gets an upset stomach after the reception, we have - proof- that it for sure was not the food, for the authorities.

His mother naturally set elegance at high standard, part of that continuity is continued today. They also seem more down to earth and more humble than other royal families.

[@pumpkie9408]

I think the reason that they are more humble and down to earth is that they have suffered so much. Suffering does bring you down to earth....

[@sherylneal3758]

Yes, tragedy will certainly get your nose out of the air.

[@chocolatcats]

THEY ALSO WERE HUMBLE FROM THE BEGINNING. A nice...quiet respectful family and still are.

Oh, the palace is lovely, elegant and has beautiful light in the rooms. So much light pink and light green. Not overdone like Versailles. Simpler but gorgeous. Love it. Prince Albert is an extremely cool character. Very subdued but has a spicy private life in his past. Lots of secrets in Monaco.

The French Cuisine is absolutely the best in the world (as far as my choice is concerned). I experienced nothing but the absolute best and visited Cote D'Azur a number of times including Monaco. The documentary is brilliant, the menu by Chef Garcia simply exquisite. It is also a very kind gesture of Prince Albert, Princess Charlene and their guests to applaud their appreciation of the culinary efforts by Chef Garcia and his team. I so much wish I could visit this part of the world again - simply adore the South of France

[@carmelitako1936]

It seems the Head Chef Mr. Garcia's name sounds very Spanish, he's fortunate that he was chosen to serve the Prince of Monaco for years though this principality is French speaking and hundreds of French chefs are available, he gained the trust of Prince Albert!
