At the entrance of Lyon, the town of Les Echets en Dombes is home to a restaurant that has been owned by the same family since 1906. The great grandmother used to cook at the start of the last century for those who travelled by horse carriage, and now Christophe Marguin is the one in charge, he has been since 1992 in fact, and generations in between have followed each other, offering warmth, friendliness and little gourmet dishes to regulars and guests just passing by. This elegant Inn full of personality boasts a classic décor: wood, white table cloths, delicate crockery, not forgetting unique service, smiling and discreet. The photo frames decorating the walls pay tribute to older generations, they are clearly still looking after the place, with great tenderness! The soul of this gourmet and delightful establishment is truly unique. Family banquets, romantic dinners or business meetings, everybody will feel welcomed at Christophe Marguin, in the main dining room or in the privatized one, even on the terrace when the weather allows. We have a passionate Chef here, who is a member of the Lyon Toques Blanches Club, who is also a Chevalier de l’Ordre National du Mérite, and he composes gourmet cuisine for everybody’s greatest pleasure. In this traditional establishment, gourmet will discover the values of traditional know how. Classic and efficient, the Chef’s cuisine is coloured by some inventive touches. Between authenticity of regional products, discreet creativity, the result is in perfect balance: scents, flavours, all senses are delighted. With the ideal gourmet menu, Christophe Marguin offers a gourmet journey into traditional and regional know how.
