Named after the Cook Pierre de la Varenne (the creator of sauces and various sauces, this th century cook is the author of a famous book as one of the first cookbook), this Bistro is more than just a bistro. On a peaceful square in the Quartier des Antiquaires opening up to the Rhone, the Bistrot La Varenne is an invitation to enjoy a wide range of leisure times. On the terrace or in warm (but air-conditioned) rooms, this restaurant/wine bar is not lacking in elegance or conviviality around Jean-Baptiste Dumond. Every Thursday and Friday, the Bistro organizes the "Work, Metro, Bistrot" (after work 18 h/21 h) to share around a good glass of wine (more than 40 references with small producers selected with care), and a board (charcuterie or local cheeses) to enjoy among friends. In cooking, Chef Yoann Richard prepares home-made dishes from products of artisans and small producers (some products to be found in the grocery corner). With its own (rare) sauce, it gives taste and taste to a map that follows the seasons. This summer, a true beef tartar with a knife like La Varenne or a creamy burratina at the "Fabioyann". To follow, a French beef fillet at low temperature, light béarnaise or a yellow place, roasted vegetables and bergamot marmelade, piquillos sherbet. Refined cheeses and pyramid with two intense chocolates, creamy caramel caramel to finish. Opened since 2015, a real discovery of the Smart this year and an authentic coup de coeur for a whole in the spirit of Lyon, that is, good humour and excellence.

Le patron est également super sympa et de très bon conseil. Seule et unique ombre au tableau, la salle est très bruyante, peut-être est lié au fait que nous étions situés sur la table centrale en plein milieu.
Mais cela ne change rien à la note maximale que je donne à ce restaurant !
