Yesterday's barking cheese factory is no longer, with its small tile floor and rough draught from which mélangés perfumes escape. No nostalgia, because the quality of the products in this "new generation" cheese factory puts great value on the wonderful cheeses of France. Here, the cheeses are no longer content to be sold at the cutting, in the air of the time, they are also presented in verrines or spoons. An extraordinary garden, where all flavours, from the toughest to the most gentle, are present, to compose a complete bouquet for a true cheese meal. In the cupboard, farmers and other dairy products are used, without missing cheese sandwiches.

In a central area, just a stone's throw from Place des Breeding which lacks the good eating addresses according to us, the opening of the Plateau de Pierre is one of the best news of this guide. What could be more welcoming than the opening of a cheese factory, especially when it is held by a genuine enthusiast, Pierre Baylot, a cheese maker's son (his mother and aunt at Ambert at Le Buron for 70 years!). Once a fool always a fool because this is a conversion for Pierre who got back to his first love for the good cause: our gourmet pleasure and the sharing of his Auvergne family experience. In this beautiful little boutique, some cheeses are awaiting us according to the seasons. Working live with small producers, particularly from Auvergne, Pierre Baylot brings us on a tray a Saint Nectaire as you won't find anywhere else in Lyon (and in the surrounding). AOP cheeses of Auvergne, but also an excellent Brie de Meaux, Reblochon and a wonderful Compté (because the refiner who works with Peter, the MOF Christian Janier settled in Lyon, is a native of Jura). A region is highlighted every fortnight in a most attractive thematic window. Personalized trays with the advice of a cheese-maker who opens us the doors of the most clever addresses.

It's the house that has the wind in its sail. Everyone rushes to Mokxa. The diligent reader will find it many times in this guide, the company extending its diffusion area as others multiply small breads.

Charles Menetrier, who took over this veritable neighborhood institution, and Rolande do their job with rigor and passion. Their wholehearted character is reflected in the quality of the breads offered in this bakery, which has retained its old-world charm (watch your step on the way in...), with cement tiles on the floor, stained glass windows and old stonework. Breads made with organic flours, traditional breads and corn bread specialties. Pastries and viennoiseries of the same quality, for a treat from breakfast to afternoon tea, with homemade bugnes for example.

Built in 1838 as Lyon's first indoor market, Les Halles de la Martinière used to house the stalls of local producers. After a long period of neglect, the Halles revived their past 7 years ago. Renovated, they are now home to an independent SCOP grocery store selling seasonal produce from local farms, a grocery store that makes sense for responsible and affordable consumption, favoring direct sourcing from organic or in-conversion organic producers. Fruits and vegetables, fresh produce, excellent cheeses, savory and sweet groceries, bulk products, as well as beverages, cosmetics and cleaning products. Regular events.

Between the start of the slopes of the Croix-Rousse, the Opera and the Hotel de Ville, this Baker holds a privileged position to satisfy the holidays and the day's refuelling. But what counts, more than the ideal situation, is the quality of the products made "to the old" in an authentic baker where one likes to feel the smell of the warm bread while leaving the office. Breads of tradition, special breads that give rise to all the dishes, breads that eat themselves as these apéritives strings, bread among 200 different products offered by this exceptional establishment: chocolate biscuits and chocolate nugget, rice cakes, Boondocks, sweet dough with cooked apples, a frangipane and pistachio brioche, tasty sandwiches, such as this fresh and generous Nordic, pastries, pastries, like this white chocolate bread, but still des to unique perfumes… The good reasons to stop taking a gourmande break are many and all justified! Especially that the service is always fast and smiling. Address is unavoidable.

Damien Cakes worked as a sommelier for ten years in large lyon cellars before creating his own company, DGVS. It offers on its website the selections of wine that can be delivered (free for Lyon and Villeurbanne, up to 20 € for the rest of the Courly). He proposes to private individuals and restaurateurs to help them build their wine cellars. Finally he also offers a service of sommelier at home. In short, this man has all the solutions for the fans of this beverage.

If you're worried about your "summer body", remember that you'll have to climb the first cobblestones of the Grande Côte before you get to Unico, which also offers sorbets. So there's no good reason not to fall for one of Lyon's finest artisan ice-cream makers. Good humor, great know-how and great values give this unique taste. Seasonal products, fruit selected from local producers, original creations and crazy tastes. On the Quai de la Saône, in a small space for great pleasure, Fresco is the specialist in Italian-style ice cream. Unusual: "gelato-tronomic" meals. Ice-cream-making workshops.

Tradition is always good. A renowned and recognized sign in the heart of Lyon, last year by the chef de cuisine to perpetuate the best of the catering tradition. At this exceptional address, everything is made home according to the rules of art, including the lyonnaiseries that are carried out day by day: cochonnailles, pâté, quenelles, calf's head, cooking sausage but still packets of skin or rib bread, not forgetting homemade bread or rye bread to accompany all its good things during cocktails. Fresh, high quality products to offer us meal formulas, such as these Wednesday's lasagna, cream mussels, and even more elaborate on Saturdays, without forgetting a fabulous chocolate pie. Lovely home for an address where individuals and businesses can order up to 10 p. m. for the same midday meal trays. A smart address to remember in all circumstances, especially for weddings or receptions, where up to 400 people will juxtapositions without leaving a miette on traditional buffets!

The ant, as Jean de la Fontaine once said, stocks up for hard times. And since times are tough for everyone, here's a super smart plan to get your shopping done at bargain prices all year round in the heart of Lyon. You can visit the two attics - Terreaux and Gambetta - as well as the brand-new Petite Fourmi (also in Terreaux), which focuses on local and organic produce, to take advantage of destocked products at knock-down prices. And if you don't feel like browsing the shelves, you can buy online from the website and collect from grocery stores. Good deals, anti-gaspi, savings: La Fourmi has it all.

When a passionate man - Marco - shares and passes on the best of what he does, it's nothing but a pleasure. A gourmet concept of the most unusual kind, open at equally unusual times, Pizza Lab is one of our favorites. At Pizza Lab, you can buy your own "pizza kit" consisting of a dough made with high-quality organic Italian flour, finely pulped crushed tomatoes and carefully selected mozzarella di bufala DOP. You can also enjoy "al tegamino" pizza at Pizza Fab, their new takeaway address.

A young distillery already awarded the title of Best Pastis in the World for its Anis des Gones at the World Drinks Awards opens its boutique in the lower Pentes area. We've fallen in love with this address, where you can help yourself to a homemade red or blue pastis, as well as a whole range of spirits including a beautiful gentian, a pink praline ginissime, a cane molasses rum or a slightly "concon" drink for your cocktails. Bulk spirits (be careful not to end up in bulk...), workshops and distillation experiments in the basement. Online store.

The café also offers on-site and takeaway meals, but does not offer a delivery service.
