eat in lyon: Lyon-Dakar

Hello there !

Today, We are travelling through Senegal ! Lyon-Dakar is a nice restaurant for tasting Senegalese Kitchen!

I must say that the greeting and the quality of service are great. The owner of the restaurant is a very nice person and he gives advice with a detailed explanation of all dishes. Before starting your dinner, I suggest you to order exotic coctails, I especially like them to be prepared with ginger. As starter, you can taste cod-fish or meat pastries. As main dishes, maaffe beef (tomato and peanut butter sauce) or yassa fish (simmered in onion with a garlic, mustard, and lemon sauce) are excellent. If you want to taste something really original and good, you can take Thiéboudienne (marinated fish cooked with tomato paste and a variety of vegetables). It is the national dish of Senegal. In Lyon-Dakar, you have the choice of French wines but I advise you to try a fresh Senegalese beer to accompany your dinner. As deserts, You can take the oven-baked banana or pineapple flambée with rhum. On the prices side, Lyon-Dakar is not expensive. You can order a menu (starter, main course, desert) for 15-22 euros. A nice dinner with a fresh beer will cost around 20-25 euros.
