Local passionate artisans

Thierry

La Crèmerie Lyonnaise – Cheeses shop

“Having previously worked in catering and food distribution, I wanted to devote myself to my passion for good local produce. So it was with this in mind that in 2016 I decided to take over this cheese shop, which had opened a few years earlier in the Saint Georges district. In collaboration with several regional artisans such as Christian Janier (MOF 2000), I take great pleasure in selecting various and varied quality cheeses for everyone’s enjoyment.”

Laurent

BMD – Wine bar

Passionate about wine since always, I decided to open this establishment 6 years ago. Making myself happy by working with quality products is a priority for me! I select and offer wines from producers in the region but also French and international wines. Having grown up in Old Lyon, this new adventure is a homecoming.

Alexandre Luminarium

Alexandre

The Luminarium offers you a wide selection of teas developed by them, but coffee lovers will also be conquered. Alexandre has chosen a Mokxa roaster from Lyon and he will be delighted to introduce you to their selection according to the rules of the art, espresso, ristretto or cappuccino, it’s like being in Italy! Sweet tooths will not be left out and could enjoy cheesecakes, cookies and other sweets!

Joël

Les Fines Gueules – “Bouchon” restaurant

“Here we have two quality requirements: Serving a real Lyonnais food and using fresh local products.”

First of all, he studied at the Hotel School of Chamalières and after several experiences in Lyon, Paris and London he had a job at the Paul Bocuse Institute and finally worked 11 years with Paul Bocuse in Collonges as Deputy Director. As a result he is back to the fundamentals of Lyon’s kitchen: “Here we peel, we bone, we simmer, in a word we cook … Enjoy your meal and let you be parched in our beautiful district of Old Lyon!”

Fred & Nils

Sirop de la Rue – Lyon’s specialities

Fred has been in charge of Sirop de la Rue for the last fifteen years. This shop is a veritable AliBaba cave for anyone looking for quality specialities from Lyon. It’s all about good food, home-made cured meats, Lyonnais sweets and, above all, an unrivalled sense of welcome and generosity. Fred is a true Gone, and he and his son Nils will be happy to introduce you to the spirit of the Lyonnais ripailleur. “Bon appetit and thirty!”

Félix

La Fabrique Givrée – Artisanal ice creams

The adventure of Fabrique Givrée, is that of three childhood friends: Jérémie, Martin, et Hugues. Jérémie, a young expert and offbeat chef spent his early years in the saucepans. But when he was adolescent he chose to be a pastry chef! After 15 years in prestigious houses (Fauchon, le Bristol, Valrhona), in 2012 Jérémie chooses to leave with his sidekicks in search of the ultimate ice cream, putting his mastery of tastes and textures at the service of his unbridled imagination and his love for sharing.

Toké’s team

Toké – French empanadas

TOKÉ is Argentinian empanadas revisited the French way. This concept was launched in 2018 by a young entrepreneurial couple, Chloé Gauthier and Loucas Gervasi, both from Lyon and passionate about gastronomy and Argentina. The Toké turnover is a small savoury or sweet turnover, filled with local recipes and ingredients. It consists of a stuffing cooked in a crispy pastry, all simmered with a good dose of deliciousness… Meat eaters, vegetarians or confirmed vegans: there’s something for everyone!

“Girls”

Bobosse – Charcuteries (cured meat)

Since the 60s, René Besson, alias Bobosse, has created a charcuterie based on products, quality and conviviality. From the bouchons of Lyon to the great Parisian restaurants, via the inns of France and Navarre, this ambassador of St Antoine – patron saint of pork butchers – has managed to make his products known, and by the same token develop the image of the entire Beaujolais region. Of course, the years have gone by, but the andouillettes pulled with string, the sausages to be cooked and other canaille dishes remain the best proof of the know-how preserved.
