Les Demoiselles de Rochefort - @dimiboi & @rod_gone69

Just steps away from Place des Terreaux and Lyon City Hall, you will find a haven of delights: Les Demoiselles de Rochefort. This restaurant, open for dinner from Tuesday to Saturday, invites you to a culinary getaway that combines intimacy and romance in a slightly crazy setting.

Dimmed lighting, overloaded decor, and a style between baroque and cabinet of curiosities. Les Demoiselles de Rochefort is an absolutely unique address and among the most original (and enchanting) in Lyon. With a name taken from the 1967 musical film starring Catherine Deneuve, Françoise Dorléac, and Gene Kelly, the setting could only live up to the masterpiece. You can also find numerous portraits of the great Catherine Deneuve scattered throughout...

At the helm of this amazing establishment is Olivier Fontaine, the owner and enthusiastic chef. His cooking philosophy is straightforward: provide a cuisine that relies on fresh ingredients, without any unnecessary frills, but bursting with creativity and genuine flavors. His love for the south of France shines through in ingredients like olive oil and fresh herbs, beloved elements that are used to craft both comforting and inventive dishes.

A Palette of Flavors to Discover

The menu at Demoiselles de Rochefort is an ode to indulgence. From foie gras escalope to Romans-style ravioli with cream, from venison stew with chestnuts to honey-roasted duck breast, each dish tells a flavorful story. The tuna, cooked rare and caramelized with soy sauce, offers a dance of flavors in the mouth. And to top off this culinary symphony: green tea matcha crème brûlée, raspberry gratin in sabayon, and chocolate and chili lava cake are invitations to a sensory escape to conclude the gourmet performance.

Unusual place and unforgettable experience

It's not just the delicious cuisine that sets Les Demoiselles de Rochefort apart. It's also the intimate and romantic atmosphere that emanates from the walls. The warm welcome and carefully orchestrated decor invite guests to a unique culinary experience, where gastronomy becomes a form of art, a moment of escape and delight for all the senses.
