Celebrate Lyonnaise gastronomy by showcasing the Pot Lyonnais on your table. The Pot Lyonnais is a pitcher found on the tables of Bouchons Lyonnais and is used to serve Beaujolais or Côte du Rhône wine. This pot appeared in the 19th century, with a specific capacity of 46 cl and a very thick bottom. The Canuts, the silk workers of Lyon, were entitled to 50 cl of wine paid by their employer. To save costs, employers reduced the capacity of the Pot Lyonnais to 46 cl, allowing them to fill two pots plus their glass with one liter of wine! Embrace the spirit of "Bouchon Lyonnais" by wearing our Bouchon Lyonnais aprons. Wooden signs featuring Bouchons Lyonnais will decorate your kitchen. Lyonnaise cookbooks will allow you to recreate specialties as you would find in a Bouchon Lyonnais! These renowned Bouchons are traditional restaurants in Lyon where you can savor specialties such as Lyonnaise quenelle, tablier de sapeur, cervelle de canut, Lyonnaise salad, and Lyon sausage. These dishes are typically paired with Beaujolais or Côte du Rhône served in typical Pot Lyonnais. The Bouchon Lyonnais embodies traditional Lyonnaise cuisine, good cheer, and warm hospitality.
