One Star: High quality cooking

MICHELIN Green Star

In the wake of his mentor Paul Bocuse, Christian Têtedoie has built a small gourmet empire. Perched on Fourvière hill overlooking the city, the Têtedoie is a gourmet showcase. A champion of Gallic culinary traditions, this fan of contemporary art is committed to finetuning and even modernising this heritage. Bites of snails, foie gras and pistachio; “portfolio” of red mullet, carrots and game sauce; mallard duck, grilled chestnuts and Jack Be Little pumpkins: his dishes sometimes read like an abstract art exhibition. It’s impossible not to mention his signature dish: lobster casserole with a calf's head cromesquis that he has renamed HTV (after Homard Tête de Veau in French). Generous, sensitive cuisine depicted by an intelligent array of textures and flavours.

"We favour using seasonal produce from our two vegetable gardens and from our partnerships with local producers. The recipes make full use of the produce, both in the dishes and throughout our three kitchens. We remove organic waste into compost, limiting the production of methane, and we sort and recycle cardboard, plastic, paper, aluminium and glass. Egg crates and egg cartons re-used on a deposit system, used fat is reprocessed. Our lights are LED."
