đŸ‡«đŸ‡· Finally Tried an Amazing French Dessert in Lyon

🍼 Lyon Food Finds: Aux Merveilleux de Fred & More I stumbled upon this spot while wandering. At first, I didn’t want to buy the desserts—they looked as cloyingly sweet as British ones. 😍 But the line was long, and I kept seeing people with their chocolate bread, so I decided to give it a try.😊 👉👈I noticed a tiny dessert for just 2.2€—so many locals were grabbing it, so I followed suit. Then a lovely waitress offered me a free brown-colored one too! I was so grateful I bought them right away. I couldn’t wait to taste them on the street. I still don’t know the dessert’s name, but it’s made of meringue, coated in crispy crumbs. đŸđŸŽŒThe texture is unreal—it melts in your mouth like air, and it’s not too sweet at all! It was so good that after finishing the two, I went back for four more. đŸ„Ż The "Bigger Than Your Face" Chocolate Bread This bread is huge—I even had it as lunch on a 3-hour bus ride. It’s fragrant and not overly sweet. I’d seen it everywhere, but there’s also a red bean version. đŸŒș đŸŒ·đŸŒ·We almost got that, but a kind server at another shop let us try their red bean candy (with a peanut inside) and nougat—both were rock-hard, super thick, and way too sweet. That killed our curiosity for the red bean bread. Plus, the red bean bread in the old town is sold by weight (around 18€!), while this chocolate one is only 4€—total steal.🍉🍉 🍅 Market Tomato I also bought a tomato I’d been wanting. My mom joked it looked "lopsided," but it’s soft and mushy—just like the tomatoes I had as a kid. It’d be perfect for scrambled eggs (it’d definitely release juice!), though it tastes like a regular tomato—nowhere near as good as the small green-stemmed ones in the UK.🍅 🍜 Fufu Remen The photos of this ramen shop looked amazing, and it was packed—we even had to wait for a table. All the chefs are foreigners, but the food was great. 🎉🎉 The menu has solid options, and the pork belly in the ramen is chef’s kiss—braised, super flavorful. The onsen egg was also a hit!đŸ–ïž We ordered stir-fried noodles and ramen—no misses. Average cost: 14.5€ per person. Final thought: That French dessert from Aux Merveilleux de Fred is a must-try!đŸŒČ #FrenchDesserts #HiddenGemDessertShop #LyonFood #LyonLife
