Life in Lyon is... shouldn't be fast paced comparing to London, but "too much to eat and drink but too little time to write about it!"
I am not the most diligent blogger as I know but too much have been experienced in a very short space of time- I don't know if I can ever do justice to all the wonderful things I have eaten and experienced.
Ok so randomly we were looking for a place for lunch, just like every other day here.
I had booked somewhere after my morning french class at Alliance française de Lyon.
But as we walked up the usual stairs following Google map- I remembered there was somewhere nearby we saw and it looked just like somewhere extremely promising for a meal- so we turned right instead of left- here we were: SHACK- BBQ restaurant. Vaguely I remember reading about it in those tourist booklets. (Expats' live, you often don't know where you are from where you thought you were...)
It started off by looking at IT- it looks like as if it is not open, from the usual ground floor level. Sticking my nose flat (with very little difficulty) up to the window and I saw there were some movements- It's open! So we went in and asked for a table. A table it is!
Main course we took blackened beef steaks, saignant (with quite a lot of red)
Each of us took different item to go with: Macaroni or mini baked potatoes

First floor by the window!
And we received our menu...
Menu Midi is €16 (3 course with everything!)
On the day of our lucky lunch: the soup maison is: Asian noodle soup with shrimps (think like like little pho) and other one is grilled tofu.
We took each:
Main course we took blackened beef steaks, saignant (with quite a lot of red)
Mr. G took the dessert after and we both had a mini coffee, everything inclusive ( I am not of the sweet tooth tribe)
€16 menu midi for the weekdays- good steak with starters and desserts and coffee- what's not to love about it??? I am coming back!
