There's no denying it: when it comes to gastronomy,Asia is overflowing with culinary treasures. China, Japan, Korea, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia... Each country has its own cuisine, distinct from that of its neighbors, yet similar in many ways, such as the use of fresh vegetables, soy, herbs,spices, and a certain attention to sauces.
While Chinese cuisine is associated with dishes such as noodles, steamed buns, and dumplings, Japanese cuisine features fresh fish, seafood, and noodles, which can be enjoyed with or without broth. Renowned for its spicy and fragrant traditional dishes, Thai cuisine differs from Vietnamese cuisine, which tends to focus on balanced, fresh, and healthy dishes such as spring rolls and pho. And let's not forget Korean cuisine and its unmissable barbecue!
As you can see, there's an Asian restaurant for every taste. So, if you're looking for the best Asian restaurants in the capital, follow our guide to the best Asian restaurants in Paris, the perfect places to feast and dream of Asia!
