JEANNINE ET SUZANNE
Are you looking for the ideal address for a gourmet break at any time of the day? You've just found it. Just like these ancient names, Jeannine and Susan, are now fashionable; just like the gourmet coffee is the right formula between the Lyon Comptoir Café, the traditional tea lounge and the contemporary coffee shop; this completely unique place offers the best of the past by putting it at the top of the day, blending ancestral and contemporary craftsmanship. And all this is thanks to the adorable Sophie. This original Dijon inhabitant perpetuates a beautiful family tradition, since her grandparents and great-grandparents were confectioners. Passionate about her profession, Sophie only wants to share her passion for good things, dishes, pastries and other delicacies made on the spot with fresh seasonal products. Let's take advantage in a lovely setting, mixing in its past -with its exposed stones and its ceiling in French- and present- with her current furniture with a refined design, as well as a "upside down" decor in the corridor. Any reason is good to go to Jeannine and Suzanne: for a good café signed Gonéo, a Lyon brand, Viennese Monbana chocolate when it is cold, a Harney & Sons tea, a homemade lemonade for the first summer heats or fruit juice of Arbre à Jus. Big or small hunger are satisfied with salads, soups, salty pies and sweet… Eating well and living in a friendly atmosphere that prolongs throughout the weekend, Saturday and Sunday, at the time of tasty and generous brunches. To bring home some of the delights discovered here, a large shelf in the first room serves as a grocery store. You can privatize the places for private events (Jeannine et Suzanne also make a caterer, especially for weddings). A gourmet address among the smartest ones.

Au déjeuner, le menu gourmet à 12 €, concocté par les jeunes cuissots dans le laboratoire vitré à l'entrée, vous donne un bon aperçu des spécialités de la maison : citronnade, tarte salée ou quiche ou salade au choix, gâteau du moment.
Côté salé, Germain (compotée de mangues, boeuf thaï, carottes, pousses de betterave), Isidor (gorgonzola, épinards, poires, noix, miel) et René (quinoa, tzatziki, chorizo, pois chiche, raisins secs, miel, menthe) vont réveiller vos papilles. Attention : gardez une place pour le dessert !
Car le côté sucré prend des allures de défilé de mode. Henriette, Agatha, Eugénie, Simone, Antoinette... Derrière ces noms de gâteaux se cachent des pâtisseries haute couture. Si Henriette mêle avec équilibre la pomme et le caramel beurre salé, Simone s'amuse avec de la mangue, une mousse fruit de la passion et sa gelée au basilic. Et c'est sans compter Antoinette qui nous nargue avec sa compotée de pêches jaunes sur ganache de chocolat Dulcey...
Chaque mois, telle une fashion victim, on attend la sortie de la nouvelle collection gourmande faite maison. Et c'est à chaque fois un succès !
Comme Karl Lagerfeld pour la marque Chanel, Jeannine et Suzanne travaille avec des partenaires d'excellence : cafés de la marque locale Goneo, chocolat chaud Jeanne Antoinette, thés Harney&Sons, jus de fruits artisanaux Alain Milliat, limonades Elixia... Des marques de choix pour une expérience sensorielle unique !
Bons produits et joli cadre
