Lyon | 🇫🇷 La Mère Brazier - The King of Michelin Value-for-Money

Welcome to Lyon, the **"French Shunde"** (a culinary capital like China's Shunde)! 🍽️✨ I made a reservation **one week in advance**—just search for **La Mère Brazier**, visit their **official website** (available in English or use browser translation), and book your slot by selecting the number of guests, date, and time. ⚠️ **Note:** - A **credit card** is required for booking (€400 deposit hold). - **No late arrivals beyond 15 minutes!** ⏰ We booked for **7 PM**, arrived early, but... **European restaurants open exactly on time**—no early entry! 😅 So we killed time at a nearby **Carrefour** and walked in right at 7. Upon arrival, we were **greeted warmly**, coats taken, and escorted to our table. 🧥💫 Soon after, **complimentary appetizers** arrived: **cherry-chicken liver pâté toast** and **mini baguettes** (SO GOOD!). 🍞❤️ Each guest got a **glass of champagne** (non-alcoholic options available—just ask the super sweet waitstaff). 🥂 We ordered **4 tasting menus** (mistake! **2 would’ve been enough**—check P18 for dish details, though the auto-translation is rough). By the time dessert landed at **10:30 PM**, we’d been feasting for **3.5 hours**—stuffed like Thanksgiving turkeys! 🦃💥 The food? **Not flashy, but quintessentially French.** Many dishes are **classics you’d find in local bistros**, but here, they’re **perfected**. La Mère Brazier’s founder was **France’s first female dual 3-Michelin-star chef**, and the restaurant stays true to **traditional French excellence**. 👩‍🍳🌟 At the end, the staff gifted us **nougat and mini cakes** to take home. 🎁🍰 **Four hours later**, we left **blissfully satisfied**. Most Michelin meals leave me thinking *"meh,"* but here? **This is the real deal.** No gold-leaf gimmicks—just **impeccable service**: - **Wine pairings** expertly recommended. 🍷 - **Perfect pacing** between courses. ⏳ - **Detailed dish introductions.** 🗣️ Some "Michelin" spots should **send their staff here for training**! 😤 **Final cost?** **~¥2000/person** (reasonable for Michelin—could’ve been cheaper with 2 menus). **Verdict? 100% worth it.** #FrenchCuisine #Michelin #FineDining #LyonEats
