Profile
I'm 63 years old, travelling with Danielle ,my spouse.ASIA is our favorite destination.Snorkelling and LAZING are a must for me.Danielle likes white sandbeach,calm water,sun and expensive accomodation!
Stick to oral stage,I like nice food,even expensive but I am not afraid of hostels.Good FOOD is one of the predominant interests of our trips.

We tolerate only few old stones and 1 or 2 Museum.

 LYON  canteens
Jan 30, 2009 – Oct 18, 2009
Internationally famous,French cuisine reaches its highpoint in Lyon,where people worship good cuisine.Lyon is said to have the highest ratio of restaurants to people anywhere in France,bursting with gourmet restaurants,bouchons(literally corks)small,intimate wine bars with family style cuisine and traditional ones "of the Mothers" I'll try to post restaurants with good meals with no surprises,good service and good value for money!
