Cafe La Ficelle

Cafe La Ficelle is a typical French cafe located in Old Lyon with lots of outdoor tables on the large sidewalk. They serve salads, crepes, beverages and Gelato. The food was all good quality, and it was a nice place to sit and enjoy the weather.

The menu included descriptions in English, and the waitress spoke a bit of English too.

Service

Take a seat at a table and someone will be out to serve you. We got impatient waiting for our bill and went to the counter inside to pay when we were done eating.

Items Ordered

Orange Juice and Cafe Au Lait

Freshly squeezed orange juice and Cafe Au Lait

The juice was a deliciously freshly squeezed orange juice. The Cafe Au Lait is not quite a cappuccino and not quite a latte, but somewhere in between. It was an enjoyable warm drink.

Caserta Italian Style Salad

Caserta Italian Style Salad

This salad was delicious. The tomatoes were really fresh and flavorful. The cheese on the salad was pretty good as was the olive oil dressing.

Crepe Florentine

Florentine Crepe

This was a buckwheat crepe, which I liked quite a bit. It was very flavorful and filling. The creamy spinach was delicious. My only complaint is that there wasn't very much ham in the crepe.
