Le Mandarin de Choisy sur Paris

18/05/2026: One of the most interesting culinary experiences I've ever had! On a small street at the corner of Avenue Daumesnil, this restaurant, with its elegant decor and open kitchen, offers a surprise menu created by the chef, who comes to serve his creations and takes the time to explain them. You learn a lot. It's a cuisine that blends traditional Chinese gastronomy with Western fusion. You can choose between the daily menu, which is either 3 or 6 courses. We made the mistake of ordering the 3-course menu today, so we'll definitely be back for the 6-course! It's a cuisine full of flavor and creativity, while still respecting the traditions of Chinese cuisine. The red tea I ordered was delicious and prepared with impeccable skill! You could order more rice, which had a surprising flavor because it contained a few surprises (which I'll let you discover for yourself) if you were still hungry! The pear, grapefruit, and liqueur dessert was perfectly balanced! After the meal, you feel light, yet you've had a very good lunch, full of energy—the kind that brings a sense of balance to your body. A must-try!

11/05/2026: There's something magical about it... 20 seats. It doesn't even say "Restaurant" on the outside. But the food is excellent in a family-friendly atmosphere with an open kitchen. An intimate spot in Paris. Definitely worth a visit.
