only went the once and unfortunately only went for lunch before we were leaving. the food was very rich and without the menu in front of me which i will get it is hard to remember. i do know i had pigs ear bread as a canape which was tasteless really and then my starter was the signatue dish of cantal cheese, foie gras and pork rillette, very tasty but presentation was lacking. know i come to think of it we were actually looked down on by all the staff whilst dining there which made me feel quite uncomfortable. my main i cant remember but my dessert was fantastic a hot chocolate fondant style dessert with praline ice cream, i will get the menu tonight when i get home as well as all the menus from the other restaurants, i had a realy good meal at la rotonde , but the two highlights were chapel where the food was consistent throughout with fantastic service and auberge de l'ille which was very modern and the chef is also the host and spends his time in the restaurant finishing the dishes that come to the table and explaining the techniques, the menu is a seven course set menu. the reason for this is one/ consistency, two/ the size of his kitchen and the space for the other three chefs and three/ he has unfortunately only one arm due to a car acccident. the one thing i did enjoy about lyon was how welcoming and friendly all the chefs were and all gave me a tour of their kitchens, signed menus and books etc, i stayed at the tour rose next door to the hotel which this year got a star and was top in the guide millau last year which i didnt know and actually the menu didnt appeal to me. maybe next time. i will post the menus next time as well as my trip to champagne g c
