First Class on Lyria
I am traveling from Paris-Geneva next week on Lyria TGV. The SNCF web site seems to indicate that there is no restaurant service whatsoever on this train They note a new first class restaurant service at your seat that is not available on Paris-Geneva. Does this mean that the new service is unavailable or that there is no service?
Do I need to pack a lunch?

Unfortunately, there is only a bar in this Lyria service which looks much more like standard domestic TGV service. If you want to have a decent lunch onboard the Lyria from Paris to Geneva, you need to take the service to Lausanne and connect to a Swiss train from Lausanne to Geneva. Not very efficient timewise, though

Thanks. I guess first class on this train means not much more than a nicer seat. Oh well... I should have searched more before I bought my non-refundable ticket. Alt least I think it's non refundable, the SNCF web site is a bit unintuitive.
