Yam Yam, the exquisite canteen mixing Asian and French street-food

Craving exotic street-food? Yam Yam, a brand found in Paris and Cergy, provides you with street-food between Asia and France. On the menu? Bao, fried spring rolls, gyoza, and even banh mi. But nor only. Because Yam Yam also provides bowls and more sophisticated dishes, between curry and udon noodles.

Yam Yam is the name of this Asian canteen created by two friends – the same behind the gourmet fast food ‘Marvelous’ inspired by superheroes we told you about already.

Yam Yam is an Asian and healthy restaurant especially thanks to bowls available on the menu.
We can speak of a brand because Yam Yam already enjoys two restaurants in Île-de-France: in Paris 9^th arrondissement and in Cergy-Pontoise, in Val-d’Oise in Les 3 Fontaines shopping mall.

Yam Yam DNA is blending Asian street food and French food. Therefore, on Yam Yam menu, you have bowls, bao, banh mi, fried spring rolls, gyoza, karaage chicken, bubble tea, and even matcha tea cakes.
Besides these street food products, Yam Yam also provides you with more sophisticated, more stewed dishes, signature recipes.
Among them stands katsu curry beef based on rice, marinated beef, vegetables and top-secret sauce. You also have Udon veggie based on soft wheat flour Japanese noodles, tofu and red bell pepper.

A very wonderful culinary discovery. As a starter, the karage chicken turnovers are crunchy but are stuffed with tasty and very tender marinated meat.

The chicken katsu curry is hearty, the chicken flavorful, served with rice and stewed vegetables.

As for the Beef Udon served heartily as well, the very thick noodles are served with stewed vegetables and beef, and with lots of spices.

The (spicy) marinated salmon baos are very hearty too. We rarely saw such small stuffed steamed buns. An original and very tasty recipe.

If you have some room left for dessert, the matcha cake is served in a generous size. Because generosity is the watchword at Yam Yam. Moist, not too sweet, perfectly flavored with matcha, it enables to end you meal by Yam Yam on a perfect note.
