Our Visit
Today, I visited the headquarters of 'Café de Lyon,' known for its cakes and mille-feuille among various desserts.
'Café de Lyon', inspired by a small café in Lyon located in the southeastern part of France, develops all its beverages and desserts in-house using carefully selected fresh and quality ingredients.
Then first, I'll introduce the interior of the 'Café de Lyon' headquarters branch.
There are above-ground and underground parking lots, so free parking is available without time limits.
Although the cafe has a total of 4 floors, only the 1st and 2nd floors are accessible to customers. The 3rd and 4th floors are used as a bakery factory where desserts are made daily.
The interior of the store is overall clean and calm with a gray tone, giving a luxurious and warm feeling.
The interior is spacious and has many tables, allowing you to enjoy a leisurely time in your preferred space.
Especially, the fully glassed window seats give an open feel, making it nice to sit and enjoy the warm sunlight.
This is the view of the bakery zone next to the counter on the first floor.
Beautiful and stylish merchandise cups are also on display, so take a look!
Soft lighting is on, making it possible to go up to the second floor through the staircase, which looks like a piece of art.
The second floor also has many tables and bathrooms, so it would be good to keep that in mind.
The second floor has a special private meeting room, making it suitable for group visits.
If you go back to the first-floor counter, you can comfortably place your order as the drink menu, including English names and photos, will be displayed.
The menu was so diverse that it was difficult to choose, offering not only coffee but also sherbet, juice, ade, tea, and fruit tea.
There were so many kinds of bread and sandwiches, mille-feuille, and cakes that I wanted to try them all!
Apart from the drinks on the menu, handmade bottled drinks are also displayed together in the bakery zone refrigerator.
Gelato is available in a variety of flavors, making it enjoyable for all ages.
Pick up bread with tongs, carefully place mille-feuille and cake on the tray by hand, and then pay at the counter.
The dessert ordered today consists of 4 types of mille-feuille, strawberry cake, lemon cake, salt bread, croissant, pain au chocolat,
The drinks are 'Jamon Sherbet', the signature drink 'Brown Milky', and 'Oh, Solatte'.
If you buy a mille-feuille, you can get one iced Americano for free!
Let me introduce you to the four varieties of Mille-feuille, the signature menu item here.
Milfeuille is a dessert enjoyed with crispy pastry layers and rich cream or toppings.
Since it is the most popular type, it is often sold out if you visit late, so we recommend visiting early!
Vanilla Mille-Feuille
The first thing I tried was the 'Vanilla Millefeuille,' a signature dish of Lyon.
You can eat a piece of pie and cream with a fork.
It was a fantastic taste where the rich vanilla cream melted smoothly in the mouth without being greasy!
The cream has a very rich and luxurious taste, making it perfect to enjoy with coffee!
Matcha Mille-Feuille
This time, I tried the 'Matcha Mille-feuille'.
The unique bitterness and sweetness of matcha were well-balanced, creating a truly exquisite deep and rich flavor!
If you like matcha, I highly recommend you try this menu!
Strawberry Mille-feuille
This time it's 'Strawberry Mille-Feuille'.
The combination of vanilla cream topped with Lyon's strawberry jam and fresh strawberries spread smoothly in my mouth.
This menu was very satisfying even to the taste of the editor who likes strawberry desserts!
Marron Mille-feuille
Lastly, I tried the 'Marron Millefeuille' topped with savory chestnut cream over vanilla cream.
Thanks to the sweet and rich chestnut cream, this menu had such a deep flavor that I kept reaching for it!
Zesty Lemon
This time, I tried a lemon cake with fresh lemon cream and smooth whipped cream.
The lemon flavor is not too sour or too sweet, just perfectly refreshing, making it enjoyable for everyone!
It was a delicious and special menu that I would recommend even to those who haven't had the chance to try lemon cake before.
Shanti au Pré
'Shanti au Pré' is a strawberry whipped cream cake with fresh strawberries in soft Genoise.
A strawberry cake eaten in strawberry season was indeed sweet and melted in my mouth!
This time, I will introduce Saeushyeo bread (salted bread), croissants, and pain au chocolat. 
Pain au chocolat
The pain au chocolat looks delicious to the eyes and was indeed sweet and tasty.
The layered pastry was really crispy and sweet, and the combination with the rich chocolate gave a proper sugar boost.
Sogumpang
The fantastic salt bread from the Butter Cave was also crispy and savory.
Lyon Croissant
The croissant, with its layers of perfectly baked pastry, was truly amazing and had a delightful crunchiness.
Although it is famous for mille-feuille and cake, other breads are also basically delicious and made with care, so it would be good to order and taste according to your preference!
Oat,Solt Latte [only iced]
This time, it's time to taste the signature drink 'Oat,Solt latte'.
'Oat,Solt latte' is a latte that maximizes richness with oat milk and French salt.
The latte was really rich and charming, just perfect for an editor who loves lattes like me.
Brown Milky [only iced]
This time, it's another signature drink called 'Brown Milky'.
I could feel creamy and savory flavors with rich coffee topped with sweet, thick cream.
Brown Milky is recommended to be enjoyed without using a straw, so you can fully taste and feel its flavor and texture!
Lastly, 'Grapefruit Sherbet' is a refreshing drink made with homemade grapefruit syrup.
The colors and the drink decorations were so pretty that just looking at them gave a refreshing feeling.
The combination of grapefruit's unique bitterness and sweetness was well-balanced, making it taste even better and leaving a special impression!
They bake fresh goods every morning at the bakery factory on the 3rd and 4th floors.
Since hygiene is important, they say everyone wears thorough sanitary clothing before entering.
Unfortunately, this area is not accessible to the general public.
Watching the cake being iced with my own eyes made it even more fascinating and heartfelt.
I got to see the process of making mille-feuille, carefully folded layer by layer.
We tasted the various 'Café de Lyon' menu items.
It's the perfect place to enjoy a sweet dessert and a cup of coffee in a comfortable and pleasant space.
I truly recommend this place to those who want to enjoy delicious and luxurious desserts and a variety of beverages!
