Daniel & Denise Créqui
3rd arrondissement, France
At the original Créqui branch, Joseph Viola brings accomplished technique to the generous cooking of a Lyon bouchon. Pâté en croûte with sweetbread and foie gras, pike quenelles and other local classics anchor the experience, in a room with the comfortable patina of a long-established restaurant. The atmosphere suits a convivial lunch or dinner rather than a hushed occasion. Reserve the Créqui address specifically, as Daniel & Denise has several branches, and check its weekday schedule.
