An allergen-free restaurant in Lyon
31-5-2012
French restaurant ‘Mon Histoire dans l’assiette’ has created a menu that is entirely free of 11 of the most common allergens (gluten, eggs, lactose, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, mustard, shellfish, celery, sesame and lupine). The name of the restaurant translates in English for ‘My story on a plate’. There is a different menu each season. As we see a lot of discussion between the chefs on, for example Twitter, about what to cook for those with a food allergy, maybe they can visit the restaurant in Lyon this summer for inspiration.
