Le Passe Temps Lyon

Le Passe Temps is at 52 Rue Tronchet. The restaurant holds a Michelin star and specializes in creative French cuisine. It sits a fifteen-minute walk from Rue de la République.

The room runs smart and elegant, but the real draw is its distance from the tourist-heavy squares of the peninsula. While most Michelin-starred destinations in Lyon cluster near the river or the old quarter, this address commits to the quietude of the 6th arrondissement. It is a better choice than its counterparts in the city centre if you prefer your dinner without the crush of sightseers. You get the same technical rigor as the kitchens near Place Bellecour, but with an atmosphere that belongs to a neighborhood rather than a postcard.
