Nguyen Tien - Paris

La soupe n'était pas excellente. Personnel peu aimable. L'hygiène laisse à désirer. Il y avait un chien à côté de ma table. À éviter.

The best was the braised pork belly (thit kho) authentic North Vietnamese style, sticky and full of gelatin and protein, goes well with white rice. Their home cooking style stir-fry dishes were good, the chicken moo-shu with tomatoes; the beef with green onions (French leeks). Price was very inexpensive, since their customers were just local neighborhood folks.The owner has been in France for over 30 years. He was from Ha-Noi, a native Vietnamese but speaks Cantonese as well.Worth mentioned was their restaurant name, Les Sapeques, which is an antiquity French Indochinese term for colonial coins issued by the French authority in the 19th century, a little history lesson for those who are interested.

We love Pho. Taste wise, this pho was fairly plain, but we were starving so it temporarily did the job. They do not separately serve bean sprouts, mint leaves, or the staple hoisin sauce. The fresh (non fried) spring rolls were good. Though they don't serve you peanut sauce, the peanut is within the roll itself. The upside is they serve fresh spring rolls, which you can't get at Pho 14 or Bida

Esse restaurante foi uma grata surpresa, com refeições deliciosas e com um preço bem acessível, vale a pena conhecer.

Nguyen Tien fut une decouverte cuilinaire des plus memorable. Durant notre sejour de 1 mois a Paris avec avec ma compange, nous y sommes alle 4 fois, commandant des plats differents a chaque fois. La consistance de la qualite des plats est incroyable, tout est bon. Chaque plats vous laissent bouche-bee, vous melant dans une explosion de saveur parfaitement balancee. La cuisine est nord-vietnamien, tres raffinee et differente de la cuisine du Sud, plus epicee et poignante. Les saveurs sont rondes et peaufinees, un delice.Le service est tres amical et attentif. Tenu par le chef et sa fille, le restaurant vous fait sentir comme a la maison avec des parfums de noix de coco et epice qui vous transportent au Vietnam.Seul petit bemol, la carte des vins propose un choix tres restraint et mis a part une biere vietnamiene, pas d'alcool traditionel (Son Tinh, liqueur de riz) pour accompagner le repas. Vous pouvez prendre a emporter aussi si vous le souhaitez.Fortement conseille, nous reviendrons !
