B&B L'EST 大吃二喝 — Restaurant in Paris

We has dinner here late on a Friday night. Ordered braised pork belly; aubergine with sichuan & a small serving of plain rice. Serving size is generous. 2 dishes more than enough for the 2 of us.

Pork belly was tender & gelatinous. Plenty of star anise, cinnamon flavour. Aubergine was crispy with sichuan Chili throughout the dish. As assured by the owner, the aubergine only had a hint of heat from the Chili's.

So good, we had dinner at B & B again on our 2nd night in Paris. We ordered pork bone & Chinese sauerkraut soup: assorted veg with soy sauce; small bowl of rice. Soup actually had sweet potato noodles. Veg had sichuan Chili's, peanuts, cucumber & wood ear fungus.

A delicious healthy meal for a change as nothing was fried. Husband said it was just like the pork bones soup I make back home in Australia.

Very satisfying, delicious meals on both nights, served by the most friendly owner/ manager. Affordable, generous servings. The restaurant was very busy on the second night as we dined there earlier in the night...a continuous stream of people coming in to dine.

Well worth your visit here for genuine, northern Chinese cuisine in a warm, welcoming restaurant, where the food is delicious, affordable & servings...

The owner kept saying it was coming but it hadn't by the time my family had finished theirs by which time my rice was cold and in one lump We decided to leave as we felt the wait was unacceptable and I had lost my appetite. I think the restaurant had a big party going on downstairs as huge trays of food and boxes of drink went down and my meal was...

The flavor of the pork belly was very nice but I came alone and when I asked if they could do smaller portions for a smaller price they declined. Also in my opinion the rice was cold and very very hard, approximately only half cooked!!!! I hope my stomach can digest it. The waiter explained that the rice was usually used for egg friend rice so therefore it shouldn’t be cooked fully!!! He didn’t take any of my comments to heart and I found that very...
