Rue du Boeuf

Parallel to Rue St Jean, this street is much more quiet and just as beautiful. It also has a number of restaurants, more expensive than in rue St Jean but, on average, much more worth the money.

Au 14 Février
If you can book at least two months in advance and are ready for a "surprise" menu, this tiny place (16 seats!) run by Japanese chef Tsuyoshi Arai is a rather unique experience. Just tell your waiter what you don't like or can't eat, and you will be served a five- or nine-course menu that changes every day. The cuisine is French with Japanese hints, amazingly creative, and most importantly delicious.

Boulangerie du Palais
In this small bakery, you will find good praline tarts, a popular local dessert.

Pralus
Chocolatier famed for inventing the Praluline, a decadent, buttery brioche generously studded with pink pralines. There's almost always a line outside, but it moves fast. Even the "petite" (€6.60) serves four. Pralus has other outlets but the Vieux-Lyon branch is the only one open every day.
