Very excited to visit and experience an authentic Vietnamese restaurant in Paris. The restaurant is quite small and in order to meet the demand of people, the tables were very, very close to each other. In order to leave a booth seat along the wall, you have to move the tables over or out each time. This ultimately does interupt the experience, especially when eating a bowl of hot noodle soup. I ordered the Bun bo Hue, expecting some heat and or to be given some chilli peppers, but it wasn't. There was no pork blood or any other hams. The bun bo hue broth was luke warm which was disappointing especially when you are expecting a steaming hot bowl of soup to warm you up. Also too much onions. The pho dac biet broth was delicious and hot but there was also too much onions vs. noodles and meat. Order banh cuon as well and it was actually the best part of our meal, however, nothing too special that you cant get at any other vietnamese restaurant.

Overall, it was nice to experience some authentic vietnamese cuisine in Paris (especially after eating so much bread), but it really isn't anything that I cannot get at home in Vancouver.
