If you can tear yourself away from the temptation of the speciality bread and cakes offered by this shrine to the art of baking, within a few steps you will find a butcher’s shop of the highest quality. Every animal is chosen and prepared by the master butcher. Here you will find many specialities from Lyon including tripe and many interesting varieties of sausages including saucisson à cuire, saucisson brioché and andouillette.
