LE LAURENCIN
In Vieux Lyon, all you can see are “bouchons”, but "true" bouchons, those respecting the tradition of good food, drinking and eating well in Lyon, are not numerous along the cobbled streets. Then it is good to follow Petit Futé's opinion that can guarantee you - better than any label, although Laurencin displays that of “Bouchons Lyonnais”- the authenticity of a bouchon or not. Le Laurencin has not come down in the last shower, since the house that shelters it dates from 1528 - normal, you are in the heart of the Renaissance district - and opened its doors… 25 years ago under the leadership of Jean-François Galgani! Pleasant terrace in the pedestrian street, warm room with stone walls, closely set tables as you need it in a real bouchon to get acquainted with your neighbours and to share your impressions around a good meal. After having admired the various objects decorating the walls, it is necessary to make a choice on a menu that offers the Lyon tradition: salade yonnaise, andouillette, pike quenelle, tablier de sapeur… The whole served in generous portions that will delight good eaters. Chocolate profiteroles or praline tart to finish and Lyon pots (Beaujolais, Côtes-du-Rhône…) to accompany the meal. Groups are welcomed upon reservation. A bouchon now “labelled” by Futé.

Il s'agit de spécialité lyonnaises servies en bonne quantité ! Deux types de menus existent pour le plus grand bonheur de nos papilles sans oublier les plats supplémentaires compris dans chaque menu. J'ai testé pas mal de plat : andouillette, saucisson chaud, saucisson chaud brioché, souris d'agneau .... Tout était très bon !
En dessert : une bonne part de tarte à la praline servie avec une glace vanille c'est parfait !
Quelques tables dans la rue St Jean bien agréables. Nous avons apprécié le menu Laurencin à 20 €. Cuisine traditionnelle sans chichi. Plats copieux. Définitivement une bonne adresse à retenir.
