A couple of weeks ago we met up for lunch with friends in Lyon and what's better than sharing a meal at the Brasserie Georges near the Perrache station!
Not for the squeamish or faint hearted, if you like your meat a bit raw, they have the best Steak Tartare prepared at your table as it should be!
Our delightful waiter arrived with the full monty and prepared everything under our hawk eyes!
First of all he mixes the egg yolk with oil, mustard, salt and pepper into a kind of mayonnaise
Then all get mixed together and spiced up with a bit of Tobasco. I love mine quite spicey and this time did not even had to add a drop! The King of Tartare our waiter he was!!
Minced Beef,chopped onions, parsley, capers
First of all he mixes the egg yolk with oil, mustard, salt and pepper into a kind of mayonnaise 
The Final Product served with fresh salad and chips!
So when next in Lyon, for real good brasserie food, do not forget GEORGES!!
Life is about sharing

Yum, I made Tartare once and thoroughly enjoyed it. May be time for another Tartare adventure!

Lynn, I don't eat tartare, but if I did, I'd eat this one. It's served often here in our part of Belgium. My husband and I laugh because here it's not called 'tartare' but 'filet Americain'! The story is that during WW2 the GIs asked for their beef chopped so that they could make burgers, and the local folks thought they wanted it to make tartare. Most Americans probably wouldn't eat it like this!
Thanks for the recommendation. Next time I'm in Lyon I'll try this place--but I'll probably order a burger...
Fine food that was enjoyed with super friends.
Lynette,
We love Brasserie Georges! It is Nevenn's fave resto in Lyon. He always gets les cuisses de grenouilles and escargots... and Pascal gets andouillettes. They have a killer Peche Melba too.
Now I am truly homesick... xoxoxo uju
Hey Lynn,
The dessert was an omelette norvegienne... and it was beautiful... not a peche melba.
