Best Restaurantes Chinos

With Restaurantes Chinos you have to know how to separate the good ones and those that torture you with frozen rolls. These are some of the most authentic we know of.

If we put all the Restaurantes Chinos in Spain in a row, we would build a great wall that would be visible from Pluto. The Chinese -the restaurants- proliferated like a happy family since the mid-eighties of the last century, and in their deployment the same thing happened that has happened with Italian, Japanese or Spanish cuisine, without going any further: the bad, the mediocre and the good were confused as the followers of Confucius.

With the desire to separate frozen peas from the three true delicacies, at El Comidista we have consulted a group of experts capable of distinguishing at first glance a Chinese-Restaurantes Chinos from a glutamatic torture dungeon.

But what do we mean by Restaurantes Chinos?

For me, a Chinese-Chinese has three or more of the following characteristics: Chinese people frequent him; it has an appearance that is not always easy to look at; the menu includes spicy dishes -a lot-, tendons and incredible offal; the food is not pre-frozen and it is cheap to eat.

We cleared it up to prevent someone from sticking splinters under my fingernails by missing the restaurant below their house.

If you fancy some good Chinese food, here are 10 recommended Restaurantes Chinos in Paris.

10 best Restaurantes Chinos

At Ann’s

The second opening of the Chez Ann clan focuses more on healthy and organic eating.

Starting out as a Sichuan noodle restaurant on Rue Mouffetard, the family-run Chez Ann has opened a second outlet on the Right Bank specializing in homemade dumplings. dim sum dumplings.

With its wooden decor and decorative greenery, the vibe at this restaurant, which markets itself as a healthier version of its sister on the Left Bank, is relaxed and Zen.

36 rue Mouffetard, 75005 Paris, France
Open daily from Sunday 18:00–23:00

Cantone Royal

Mikel already wrote about this restaurant –also known as the Usera Chinese (Madrid)– a couple of years ago. Is it the best Chinese restaurant in Spain? Well I do not know. There are those who say that he has died of success, and there are those who say that he maintains the level. It specializes in Cantonese cuisine, Chinese haute cuisine, a style that seeks to enhance the main ingredient, avoiding too dominant spices and abusing the spicy. What to try there? I would lean towards the jellyfish, the beef tendon stew and the aubergines with minced meat that Mikel mentions in his post.
