The tradition of honoring fathers can be traced back to the Babylonians, but in the US it all began in 1909 in Spokane, Washington when Sonora Smart Dodd began campaigning for the official observance of Father’s Day. Three Presidents supported the idea, but it was in 1972 that President Richard Nixon made it official, and to be held on the third Sunday of June. Pampering daddy with red roses, chocolates and gourmet gifts is the traditional way of celebrating Father’s Day in the USA.

25 Year Anniversary of the Louis XV – Alain Ducasse
Invited by Monte-Carlo SBM and Alain Ducasse, 240 international chefs gathered for 3 days in celebrating 25 years of culinary creation at the Louis XV. Representing 300 stars and 25 countries, these talents of today and tomorrow, some representing the “Ducasse Generation”, united for the first time around their shared passion of the good and the beautiful.
The highlight of the event was the creation of an ephemeral Mediterranean market place in the Salle des étoiles of the Sporting Monte-Carlo where 100 products hailing from the Italian and French Rivieras were presented to the attending chefs.
In the culminating point of this international event, a gala diner was held at the Hôtel de Paris in the Salle Empire and the Louis XV, executed by Alain Ducasse, Franck Cerutti and Dominique Lory.
