Institut Lyfe, a renowned French school recognised globally for excellence in the culinary arts, pastry, hospitality, and restaurant professions, has partnered with Yannick Alléno, a world-class chef who has earned multiple Michelin stars, including two awards of 3 stars. Together, they are proud to present Pavyllon, a training restaurant by Yannick Alléno and Institut Lyfe LYON. This new venture strengthens the longstanding partnership between Yannick Alléno and Institut Lyfe, based on a modern approach to cuisine and the transmission of knowledge to future generations - just as the collaborative establishment of the School of Sauces did in 2021.
Looking to the future evolution and new challenges in the arts and professions of the hotel and restaurant industries, the Pavyllon training restaurant replaces the historic «l’Institut» restaurant, transforming it into a showcase of innovation and excellence with inimitable French style. The restaurant, located in the prestigious Place Bellecour in Lyon, is scheduled to open at the end of 2025.
Yannick Alléno, head of Pavillon Ledoyen, the independent gastronomic establishment that holds the most Michelin stars in the world, is firmly committed to passing on his innovative vision of cuisine and gastronomy to the future protagonists and ambassadors of the profession.
Through this collaboration with a new concept, Institut Lyfe, backed by 30 years of expertise, reaffirms its position as a leader in training for the hospitality and restaurant industries along with its student-focused strategy of educational innovation and employability. Institut Lyfe promotes immersive pedagogy in a unique environment, consisting of Le Royal, a 5-star MGallery hotel, Saisons, the only Michelin-starred training restaurant in France, and now with the addition of the Pavyllon concept, a restaurant established in Paris, Monaco and London – with each location boasting a Michelin star.
Embracing progress and implementing new methods is, for me, at the heart of training young talents. With Institut Lyfe, we are building a framework where innovation and transmission coexist to develop the gastronomy of the future. Innovative chef Yannick Alléno
Our longstanding collaboration with Yannick Alléno, with whom we created the uniquely innovative School of Sauces in 2021, is today reaffirmed with renewed strength and ambition, ensuring that Institut Lyfe continues to be a benchmark of excellence for training in the culinary arts and restaurant and hotel professions, with an international and innovative vision inspired by the very best in the industry. Gilles Pélisson, President of Institut Lyfe
