this is a small Vietnamese joint in the 3rd—they only have two things on the menu: pho bo and bo bun. It feels like you’re in Saigon, and is perfect fuel for a pre-Pompidou stroll

My all time favorite lunch spot in Paris. Really cheap and the sobas are tasty and the quality is just right. Also, service is friendly.

Urfa Durum in Paris has been serving fresh Kurdish specialties for more than 15 years. You can watch the dough being rolled by hand and enjoy the smoky aroma from the wood burning charcoal grill. The cozy setting and made-to-order approach make it a welcoming spot for both locals and visitors.

Filling, affordable and oh-so-satisfying.Slinging some of the best lahmacun your Euro can buy, this tiny Kurdish sandwich shop on Rue du Faubourg Saint-Denis in the 10th arrondissement has been open for over 15 years. From the hand-rolled dough to the wood burning charcoal grill, everything is cooked to order and assembled right in front of you. The charred savour and crisp-come-soft chew of the homemade bread is something to write home about.The straightforward menu offers a handful of dürüm, including ground beef, free range chicken, lamb and lamb's liver, as well as a vegetarian option. Take your pick, you can't go far wrong whichever path you choose. However, leave without a lahmacun in hand at your own peril: lamb mince and spice and everything nice - AKA tomato, parsley and onion.A must-visit when in Paris!
El Nopal Taqueria
5 Rue Duperré
5 Rue Duperré, 75009 Paris, France
El Nopal Taqueria is a hidden gem in Paris that many say serves some of the best tacos outside of Mexico. They make fresh tortillas and keep things simple, offering a friendly, down-to-earth atmosphere. It’s a welcoming spot for anyone looking for a relaxed and authentic bite.

Best tacos in Paris. Hidden behind some of the seediest establishments in the area El Nopal are slinging the best tacos outside of Mexico. All the classics, carnitas, Chorizo and my absolute go to Barbecoa. Not surprisingly making fresh tortillas to order this backstreet gem of a place was the best find of the day. I mean… to head to Paris to eat Tacos feels like sacrilege coupled with the seedy area of lingerie, vibrators, gyrating door hosts and neon but it’s a perfect accompaniment to the area.I cannot recommend this place enough.

Fresh Vietnamese food in the 13th district.I love going to Pho Tai with at least four people so we can order everything. It's a Vietnamese restaurant that has very good and fresh food. Try at least the bánh cuon, poulet croustillant (crispy chicken), nems and riz cantonnais!There are always people waiting outside to get a table. It's a place where you don't really stay long, you eat and then go for a walk.
