They have an excellent lunch menu for 8 euros, which includes your bobun (choice of chicken, beef or veggies+nem) or laksa or plat du jour with rice, dessert, and unlimited jasmine tea served hot or cold. Everything I've tasted here is incredibly flavorful, though I do have a preference for the bobun. This is definitely one of the best places to eat in Montreuil. So if you're around, don't bother with another kebab place, get your bobun over here!

There is normally a line during lunch hours, for good reason! Service is friendly.
