In the heart of Ecully, at the Château du Parc du Vivier, Chef Florian Pansin and his team welcome you on a culinary journey that blends emotional cuisine with the passing down of culinary traditions.
Located in the heart of the Château du Vivier park in Écully, the Michelin-starred restaurant Saisons—which also serves as the training restaurant for the Institut Lyfe (formerly the Institut Paul Bocuse)—is an exceptional gastronomic destination that combines culinary artistry, French elegance, and the passing down of culinary traditions.
Under the leadership of Chef Florian Pansin since 2020, the restaurant offers cuisine that evokes emotion—sincere and accessible. His style blends the great French tradition with a contemporary sensibility, where each dish seeks to tell a story, awaken memories, and inspire wonder through the harmony of flavors, the precision of technique, and respect for the ingredients.
Enhanced by the new “Saisons” menu, the offerings evolve in harmony with the seasons. “Saisons” also revives the magic of the fine arts of the table through the “Canard à la presse” experience—a spectacular ritual in which the duck is carved and prepared in the dining room right before your eyes, creating a moment of pure culinary theater (available only upon request, at least 7 days prior to your reservation).
The gastronomic immersion continues in the Salon Héritages with an exceptional cheese experience designed as a sensory dialogue between rare aged cheeses (selected by MOF cheesemaker Christian Janier) and fine fortified wines.
Saisons offers a selection of bottles from our cellar to take home, as gifts, or to treat yourself.
Finally, Saisons comes alive all year round with a series of exclusive events: jazz nights, immersive themed dinners, and prestigious four-handed dinners featuring renowned guest chefs.
