French Harlem? Not exactly, but Chez Lucienne is as close as you can get without leaving the comfortable confines of this historic neighborhood. If you can't get into the Red Rooster next door, grab a seat at the baby-blue banquette or relax at an outdoor table where locals come to sip coffee or wine, dogs at their side. The menu looks to Lyon with classics like sautéed foie gras and steak au poivre by a chef who logged time in the kitchen with famed chef Daniel Boulud.
