Sunday lunch with a Lyon legend

I booked Sunday lunch at the Epona restaurant in the Intercontinental Hotel for Cath as she missed out when my dad visited. The food was as lovely as last time but this time we were seated next to a real local celebrity.

Lunch in the courtyard

He was invited to tour the kitchens if he wanted, people were taking selfies with him but we had no idea who he was.

Cath asked the waiter after the celeb had left and it turns out it was…… Jean-Michel Aulas no less. Who that? Only the president of Olympique Lyonnais.

He must have been celebrating yesterday’s 5-0 win
A big win on Saturday evening
The Intercontinental Hotel is a lovely setting
