Les meilleurs restaurantsde cuisine indienne dans le quartier Rochechouart de Paris

06/04/2024: Very good restaurant, the setting is nice. The fusion between Lebanese and Indian flavors is a real delight.

06/04/2024: My recent visit to the Indian-Lebanese restaurant Ismail was an experience that, unfortunately, did not meet my expectations at all. Despite my initial enthusiasm, I was deeply disappointed by the quality of the food and the complete lack of fusion between Indian and Lebanese cuisines. Upon arrival, I was greeted warmly by the staff, which created a pleasant atmosphere. However, this positive first impression was quickly tarnished when I tasted the dishes. The bland and uninspiring flavor of the dishes left me feeling desolate. I had hoped for an explosion of exotic flavors, but instead found the cuisine devoid of any creativity. What disappointed me the most was the total lack of mixing between Indian and Lebanese cuisines. To tell you, firstly, I am of Indian origin and secondly, I absolutely love Lebanese cuisine. The dishes seemed to be simplistic, soulless interpretations of each cuisine's traditional dishes, with no attempt to combine them harmoniously. The hummus was horrible! The Butter Chicken (Murgh Makhani) was absolutely nothing like a Butter Chicken! The main dishes with Ismail sauce were but such a lack of flavor. How can we destroy Indian cuisine which is made up of a thousand flavors. Brief! I had waited so long to discover unique flavors resulting from this fusion, but they were unfortunately absent. Although my experience at the restaurant did not live up to my expectations, I would like to highlight the attentive and courteous service of the staff . The setting was also pleasant and conducive to a relaxed evening. And the cleanliness and decor were impeccable. In conclusion, although I had a sincere desire to discover and appreciate this mix, my experience was disappointing. I sincerely hope that improvements are made to the quality and creativity of the cuisine so that other diners can enjoy a more rewarding experience.
