We take our dining very seriously and would never mess with the carefully crafted menus designed in michelin stared restaurants, however, we have a little boy who is a very fussy eater. At the Metropole Monte Carlo in Joel Roubuchons restaurant we ordered the taster menu and he had chips and icecream. No problems. I also tend to avoid beef and sea urchins that i cant bear but minor amends like these have never even resulted in a raised eyebrow. Finally at breakfast, i like a plate of kiwi. When we stay at lhw hotels they always seem to be able to dig some out, not so at the fairmont who have substituted bananas! I never hesitate to ask but it is only the very top who seem to have the ingredients and skill to impress every time.
