MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View

Bib Gourmand: good quality, good value cooking

Founded in 1978, this shop made its name with its rice – steamed in a soft rush-woven pouch that imparts unique aromas. Though no longer cooked that way, quality local rice is now topped with a dab of house-made pickled potherb mustard for savoury sweetness. Deep-fried pork ribs, and beef in sacha sauce are the hottest choices to go with the rice. The food may take time to arrive as everything is prepared to order. Expect to queue at lunch.
