Yunnan cuisine of southwestern China is showcased at this bright spot in the 9th.
A well-regarded Chinese table, run by a Qingdao native, specializing in the cuisine of the Shandong province, in eastern China.
Cheap and cheerful cooking from the Shaanxi province, courtesy of Zhao, who hails from Xi’an. Get the pork-filled flatbread.
- François-Régis Gaudry says that Chez Vong is the place to go for canard laqué (Peking duck). The “state of the art” preparation takes place over three consecutive services and results in an “irresistable” contrast between crispy skin and melting duck fat. [L'Express] Our own Chrisos wrote a similarly loving review last year.
- A posse of PbM readers joined Dorie Greenspan yesterday at the U.S. Ambassador’s residence to taste Napa Valley wines paired with Dorie’s own gougères and a series of dishes (truffled Brie and foie gras) prepared by Yves Rouquel. We learned about at least one place – the Comptoir des Andes in the 14th – where these surprisingly good Napa wines can be found in Paris. [Meg Zimbeck]
Rumor has it that the Hunanese cooking here is genuinely hot.
A bustling Chinese canteen, known especially for dim sum.
The arrival of the bill may preclude any happy endings at this bordello-like Chinese address in the 7th.
The name is cute but the homestyle Chinese cooking is serious at this minuscule address, run by a chef from Shanghai. BYOB, or wash it down with tapioca-filled tea.
Whether or not you believe YOOM serves the most authentic dim sum in Paris may depend on whether or not you’ve been to Hong Kong. Now with two locations, the original on rue des Martyrs, and a newer outpost in the 6th.
Craving a little heat? Head to this address for chili-laden Hunanese fare. If you want their chicken Zuo Zang-tong — General Tso’s chicken — be sure to call a day in advance and let them know.
This tiny, highly regarded Chinese restaurant veers from the usual family style format, offering a limited-choice, three-course menu. NOTE: They’ve recently moved to this new address on rue de Charenton.
Hand-thrown noodles are stretched and cut before your eyes at this Chinese spot.
