Prestige Restaurant The ninth art, that of comics and gastronomy, perhaps to underline, in this strange crew, the high degree of aestheticism that food can reach when treated here by a great chef of French cuisine, Christophe Roure, Meilleur Ouvrier de France. With his wife Nati, he opened this corner table in Lyon's 6ᵉ arrondissement in 2014, whose bare facade hints at aesthetic rigor taken to the extreme. Inside, purity reigns, with light wood, English green armchairs, artist lighting and dark, sound-absorbing carpeting. The service, orchestrated by Nati Roure, is precise, almost military, executed by a brigade dressed in ties and under tension. The head sommelier, protector of his 1,200 references, guides with ease between great Burgundies, fine Côtes-du-Rhône and foreign rarities. But it's on the plate that the real show unfolds, with Arctic char cooked on the table in beeswax, pearly monkfish with satay, David Blackmore's exceptional wagyu sublimated by the flame of wood... Stripped-down, spectacular dishes, with no artifice, where technical perfection serves pure, clear emotion. In pastry, Tanguy Nourrisson seduces with an airy lychee-raspberry smoothie, but the revisited Norwegian demi-omelette, which accompanies the seasonal fig, lacks a little of the flamboyance that punctuates the rest of the meal.
