La Nef des Fous, French restaurant in Vieux Lyon, France.
La Nef des Fous presents traditional French dishes in an antique-decorated dining room featuring royal thrones and an aquarium in a converted bathtub.
The restaurant takes its name from Hieronymus Bosch's painting depicting the allegory of gluttony, establishing a connection between art and gastronomy.
Located on Rue du Boeuf, known as France's most Michelin-starred street, the restaurant maintains Lyon's reputation as a center of French cuisine.
The restaurant serves dinner from 7:00 PM to 10:30 PM daily, offering a three-course menu for 39.90 euros with first courses at 13 euros.
Chef Justine Putelat prepares smoked dishes using beechwood in a dedicated smoking room, including signature items such as duck breast and salmon.

Lyon and its surroundings host restaurants housed in converted buildings that differ from the usual formats. An old convent downtown now hosts Les Téléphones, where customers order via vintage phones placed on each table. In Montagny, Aux Prisons occupies an old prison whose walls and cells have been preserved. Le Petit Meunier in Messimy is located in a 19th-century mill where the water wheel continues to turn during service. These establishments also offer different sensory experiences. At La Table en Braille, the meal takes place in complete darkness, served by a visually impaired team. Oto Oto mimics the atmosphere of Japanese izakayas with low tables and rice paper partitions. Les Fils à Maman relies on nostalgia for the 1980s-1990s with its home-style cuisine and retro decor. From the baroque of La Nef des Fous to the Ethiopian specialties of Messob served on injera, these restaurants combine French or international cuisine with settings that add an extra dimension to the meal.
