Sichuan beef shreds / Twice cooked pork / Mapo tofu / Kung Pao chicken / Sichuan boiled beef at Jia Yan in Paris
Jia Yan is one of my favorite Sichuan-style Chinese restaurants in Paris. They have a large selection of dishes so I went there many times.
Below, dry-fried Sichuan beef shreds (干煸牛肉丝).
Twice Cooked Pork at Restaurant Sichuan in Paris
Twice cooked pork (回锅肉; Porc cuit deux fois or Porc à l’ancienne in French), with side of white rice. So good!
Sichuan beef shreds at Tian Tian Wang in Paris
Dry-fried Sichuan beef shreds (干煸牛肉丝), with additional bowl of rice. It was really good!
Sichuan boiled beef / Mapo tofu at Asia Room in Paris
Sichuan boiled beef (水煮牛肉 – “shuizhu niurou” in Chinese; “marmite de boeuf piquant” in French).
This is a classic dish from the province of Sichuan in southwestern China. It was very spicy and really good. It was only my first time eating this dish and, after Asia Room, I had it at many other restaurants in Paris.
Spicy Noodle Soup at Mian Guan in Paris
Spicy noodle soup with minced pork.
It is possible to choose the type of noodles: I got the knife-cut noodles (刀削面; Dao Xiao Mian). Pretty good.
Spicy Noodle Soup at My Noodles in Paris
Spicy noodle soup with beef (N1 on the menu). The noodles are handmade in the shop and have a pleasant chewiness.
Chinese Dumplings at Ji Bai He in Paris
Boiled jiaozi (all-you-can-eat). I was completely full after the first plate so I stopped there.
