The 4 things to taste in Lyon
Lyon has the highest concentration of restaurants per inhabitant. You will have the choice during your trip to taste all the specialities of the city.
Here are 4 of them that we have selected for you:
1.La rosette
For all lovers of charcuterie, the Rosette de Lyon should satisfy you. This sausage is made only with pork meat and fat. Ideal as an aperitif accompanied by bread, butter and gherkins! If you are passing through, you can even provide your sandwich with it, it's a treat.
2. The brioche sausage
For a snack that's a real treat, try the brioche sausage. A pretty soft brioche topped with a sausage cooked in a stew. It is a culinary speciality from the charcuterie pâtissière. A sweet and savoury mixture that you should appreciate. It is usually served in slices.
3. The sapper's apron
The sapper's apron is a rectangle of double fat, marinated in white wine, breaded and fried.
The name "sapper's apron" comes from the apron once worn by sapper soldiers under Napoleon III, made of cowhide leather for heavy work. This dish is perfectly accompanied by potatoes.
4. The praline tart
To finish on a sweet note, we suggest the famous praline tart. A speciality from Lyon prepared with crushed pink pralines. The praline is made of almonds coated with coloured syrup. Enjoy!
