It was Le French Gourmay month that attracted me and my wife to experience Chez Patrick Lyonnais menu. I took their promoted menu but my wife decided to try 2 of their signature dishes instead.The 4-course with wine pairing was HK$810 per head. I would say that this was an impressive experience of "Cuisine Bourgeoise" as they positioned.The Amuse Bouche was good especially the Asparagus soup.The 4 courses were:1.

The 4-course with wine pairing was HK$810 per head. I would say that this was an impressive experience of "Cuisine Bourgeoise" as they positioned.
The Amuse Bouche was good especially the Asparagus soup.
The 4 courses were:
1. Black pudding tartlet, comfit apple and creamy cardoon veloute - this was very well balanced for the 3 items mixing together in mouth. The wine (Cotes du Rhone Villages Belleruche 2012) delivered the usual Rhone Blanc feel but won't merit a high rate.
2. Braised cabbage and pig trotters parcels, wild mushrooms sauce - it looked heavy because of its dark colour but it was in fact quite light because of the cabbage and it was tasty with the mushroom sauce. It did give a good feel of home cooking. The wine (Saint Joseph Deschants Rouge 2010) went well with this dish with its rather rough and spicy notes of Rhone.
3. Roast whole rib eye, Beaujolais blue cheese sauce - the beef was lovely and it was nicely paired with the sauce. The wine (Crozes Hermitage les Varonniers 2011) matched well with the beef and sauce.
4. Pink praline ice nougat, Lyon's fittlers and apricot coulis - this was well presented and gave satisfying taste to finish the meal.
The 2 signature dishes picked by my wife were:
1. Foir gras trio with orange and bitter chocolate sauce - it gave 3 different foir gras experience and the terrine with figs and ice-cream were especially good.
2. Pan seared John Dory fillet and king prawn, sauce bouillabaisse from Marseille - very fresh seafoods with tasty sauce
The overall experience was good and we will come back for further experience.
