Philippe Bel has divinely created chocolates which were my favorites out of a number of chocolatiers I went to recently while in Europe. Plus, the woman helping me here was very nice and extremely patient with my struggling French. No question I would come back here for more when next in Lyon.

Wow! It's all I can say after trying some treats…read more Philippe Bel is one of 19 MOFs in chocolate in the world - an incredibly prestigious achievement. His shop is a reflection of all his years of studying the art of chocolate and candy. Everything in his chocolates are made by his shop - not purchased. The caramels melt in your mouth and are full of flavor. I adored the cassis (black currant) flavor. The chocolates are beautiful and touted as some of the best in the world, yet not badly priced. I was thrilled with my experience and highly recommend you stop in to taste (and buy) some delights!

Both had the delicate delicious crunch and the fillings were more fruit than sickeningly sweet. The entire shop is a treat to the eyes.

When i'm back in Lyon, this will be one of my stops to take care of a sweet craving.

My daughter took me to this shop for praluline brioche. At first glance of it, I was thinking what…read moreis so special about this. It just looked like a large round piece of bread with red pieces in it. She insisted that we get it and promised that it would be amazing. I said ok and for a large piece, the amount was 12.70 euro. I thought that was a little expensive for bread, but she said "Mom it is worth every cent." Because I was visiting her in Lyon, I said fine, still apprehensive about it. We took the loaf and my daughter could not wait to eat it for after dinner treat, so we walked over to a bench looking at the Saone River in Vieux Lyon to have a bite. She opened the beautifully wrapped package and handed me a piece. Wow, it was so buttery, sweet and delicious. Incredible! I couldn't believe how good it was. One bite lead to another, until we ate 2/3 of the loaf. Please note that this is suppose to be shared with at least 4 to 6 people. We totally ruined our appetite for dinner eating this decadent brioche. I let her know that we she comes home for Christmas to bring me back two loaves. It is a must eat!
