Reviews of interest
- Barbra Austin via Girls’ Guide to Paris (2011) “…varied and refined Vietnamese dishes, with visits to Cambodia and Laos, too, in a comfortable, good-looking space.”
- Alexander Lobrano (2011) “The raviolis Vietnamienne and rouleaux de douze legumes that followed were excellent…Next, chicken in fresh ginger sauce and scallops in coconut milk, both of which were excellent…All told, a wonderful meal…I know I’ll be going back often.”
- Emmanuel Rubin – Figaroscope (2011) “…on attendait un peu plus de ce bistrot en version cambodgo-lao-vietnamienne…Bo bun aux nems: correct sans plus. Lamelles de bœuf, oignon, échalote, basilic: gentillet. . Saucisses de porc à la citronnelle et galanga: mollassonnes.”
- Pierrick Jégu – L’Express (2011) “…ce joli bistrot vous installe sur des banquettes confortables et vous assoit avec ses assiettes qui cuisinent le Laos, le Cambodge et le Vietnam par le bon bout de la baguette: excellents raviolis de porc poêlés, délicieux natin -viande de porc hachée sautée au parfum de kapi, échalote, lait de coco et flocons de riz croustillant…”
