Salade Lyonnaise
Hi Cen,
The salad was a particularly good way to start the meal.
The photos are a mixture of the M9 with a 50mm Summilux and the D-Lux-4, my usual camra for watch macros over the last few years. The low lighting and white balance was a real challenge for me. But we learn something and get better each time.

Bistrot du Boeuf Rouge, Geneva
While in Geneva I tried a number of restaurants, most recommended by the locals. While I do try to eat local cuisine and drink regional wine and beer when travelling, it seems that much of the best food and ingredients in Switzerland are imported from sur...

re: dinner one
Looks good, never tried tripe sausage but I would definite try it ( that and the pate on the menu). -MW
Not as stinky as ...
... its reputation suggested. But absolutely full of flavour. And they give you extra mustard sauce and dipping bread. Delicious. Andrew
Thanks chum!...
Hope to be able to report shortly that 'Dinner 3' lived up to the promise. ;-) Cheers, pplater.
Looking forward to your review ...

Delicious Andrew!
The food looks like great French country fare. I remember a place in Lyon that I went to a very, very long time ago called Ma Mere Jean that had simple, hardy food like this.
That meal made me want to ...
... jump on the next flight to Lyon! I loved the food, particularly the sausages. Even the espresso coffee, which wasn't a strong point around Geneva, was excellent. [I guess Nespresso was 'born' in Lausanne, but it was ubiquitous in Switzerland; c onsist...
Lovely place ...
Andrew, Thank you for the gastronomic tour. The food looks very tasty and I loved the details, like the name of the restaurant on the saucer. Cheers, Nilo

gotta try this place on the next visit
Looks like a nice restaurant to visit in Geneva and the food looks tasty. Thanks Andrew for sharing these pics. Regards, ED-209
Beautiful pics, I like them.
That looks like a very nice place, I think I passed by there on my last visit to Geneva, but we went for a "raclette" instead. We have a restaurant here in Valencia that has the same "savoir", and the food is fantastic. I like the focus in your pics, make...
