Had my birthday dinner here. I am 75% Korean so was really curious what "Korean-French fusion cuisine" would be like! The food didn't disappoint. Staff was friendly, without being too in your face. The only thing j would change about this place is maybe the lighting (the food pics came out looking horrible; but that's just me and my Instagram addiction) and the music (it's more of a "branché" place than an elegant, classical place so the music is like that too). I think it's pretty good value for what it is. Oh just one more thing- because they ask you to guess what you just had and then they give you explanations about each dish after you finish it, I noticed that my conversation with my partner would get broken off a bit. It's not the staff's fault but if you're looking to focus more on connecting and conversing with your dining companion, this might not be the perfect place. But if you want to focus on food served in front of you and the topic of food in general, then this...
Read moreI was staying nearby and my hosts recommended this place for dinner. They have a decent vegetarian menu. It's a simple place, with seating outside but the food was great. I had the vegetable with rice noodles soup. Nice fresh crispy vegetables, with fresh ginger and coriander. Very cheap too at 6 euros. It was copious and I didn't need anything else. The Patronne came to find out if I had liked it and responded that it was very good. The staff are friendly...
Read moreUn endroit incontournable de Belleville. Lieu exigu (bien qu'il y ait deux petites salles, mais il faut aimer manger collé·e à son/sa voisin·e dans une ambiance très bruyante) mais cuisine fraîche et aux multiples saveurs. Les bánh cuốn sont convenables (ceux de l'Hawaïenne, un peu plus bas, me semblent toutefois meilleurs et plus fournis en farce). Après avoir testé un peu tout (le riz, les nouilles, les soupes), je ne prends plus que le bo bun au bœuf, copieux, au rapport qualité/prix très intéressant (8,30 € actuellement contre 7,80 € avant la crise Covid-10 il me semble, snif). Il y a également des plats végétariens donc c'est vraiment facile de venir avec des amis aux goûts différents. Quant aux boissons, elles sont à un tarif dérisoire. Le seul gros reproche que je peux faire concerne le temps d'attente vraiment très long, même quand on arrive dans les premiers. Alors certes, c'est cuisiné sur place etc., mais il ne faut vraiment pas être pressé·e ! J'y viens assez souvent, malgré l'accueil impersonnel, voire froid des personnes qui prennent les commandes (sauf la dame, fort aimable, mais elle n'y est pas toujours hélas). En bref, une excellente adresse pour les bo bun, à condition de se fiche du service et d'avoir du...
