A few years later, here was finally the place he dreamed of, a place for everyone, with dozens of people in the room working in a good mood to welcome and accompany visitors of all ages.
Homemade and local brands are also at the heart of the project with the shop and restaurant offering local dishes and accessories such as this wonderful palette of meats and cheeses made less than 30 km from Grenoble or the Grésivaudan brand, YY Vertical.
