Why choose a private chef in Francheville?

Francheville is one of those towns in the first ring of Lyon where the art of hospitality remains a strong marker.

Residents appreciate being able to enjoy quality cuisine comparable to that of Lyon's best restaurants, without having to travel to the city center.
The advantages of a chef in Francheville:

  • Gourmet cuisine prepared in your own home, in your kitchen, with no logistics to manage.
  • Menus adapted for family homes and reception spaces (terrace, garden, dining room).
  • A full service: grocery shopping, preparation, cooking, table service, kitchen cleanup.
  • The proximity of Lyonnaise and Rhone-Alpine terroir for product sourcing (Lyon markets, local producers, Beaujolais and Rhone Valley winemakers).

Our chefs' cuisine in Francheville

Our chefs in Francheville build their cuisine around the Lyonnais and Rhônalpin terroir, recognized as one of the richest in France. They draw inspiration from local culinary tradition (Bresse poultry, cheeses like Saint-Marcellin, charcuterie, Rhône fish) while adding their own personal touch, often more contemporary or influenced by other cuisines.
Depending on the chef chosen, you can lean towards:

A kitchen gastronomic (5-6 course tasting menu, elegant presentation, premium ingredients).
A kitchen bistronomic (plus accessible, creative, modern bistro spirit).
A kitchen Mediterranean or Provençal (olive oil, Southern vegetables, fish).
Fusion or international cuisine (Italian, Asian, contemporary fusion).
