Lyon Restaurants

In Lyon, restaurants serving typical Lyons food are called “Bouchon”.
The name “bouchon” (cork in English) would come from the time when restaurants hung a bundle of branches ("bousche" in Lyons dialect) to indicate their establishment.
Today, a bouchon restaurant is the must do restaurant to experience lyon specialities.
In a typical setting with small tables covered with red and white checkered tablecloths, savor quenelles (natural or flavoured dumpling), chicken liver soufflé, brioche pork sausage, andouillettes lyonnaises (trips prepared the lyon's way), cervelle de Canuts (cottage cheese with herbs, garlic and onions), tarte praline (praline tart), etc.
Be careful, you better finish your plate because Guignol and Gnafron puppets are watching you!
