Pretty classy décor for a Paris 13ème restaurant - former French president François Hollande dined here! The salads (key is in the preparation of the fish-sauce-based dressing) are pretty authentic and quite appetising. Likewise for the tom yum soup (only one kind here) - yummy. The cooked dishes are ok, but not the stuff that Thai foodies would scream about: the curries are too westernised - lacking spiciness and flavour; the fried fish is insufficiently seasoned (in Thailand, you can even eat the bone!) ; no difficult dish like lemongrass and lime steamed fish.

We got down and dirty with the seafood noodles, a bowl of Pho, fried lemongrass tofu, and their chicken and mushroom dish. For dessert we had tri-colored tapioca (che ba mau), coconut/banana rice pudding, and the sweet tofu. Can you say mouth orgasm? The mushrooms were tender and flavorful, the noodles addictive, and the Pho soup was as good as any I've had in the states. All dishes were under 11 euros. For the three of us, the total came out to about 50 euros, including dessert and tip. Which is a hell of a deal in snobby Paris.

The food was good, the service was painfully slow. When we arrived, there was a table of ~10…read moreteenagers that were very rude and commanded the staffs attention the entire time they were in there. It took about 30 minutes for the staff to take our order. I was about ready to leave. On the other hand the curry chicken was good along with the shrimp dumplings.
