The neighbourhood

From the heart of old Aix to your box

Place de l'Hôtel de Ville is the old town of Aix at its liveliest: cobblestones, terraces and passers-by at every hour. Asian Road is a few minutes' walk away, at 9 rue Laurent Fauchier, behind the courthouses.

We serve Southeast Asian street food with no fixed country, inspired by Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Indonesia and Malaysia. No booking: you walk in, you see the kitchen, you order at the counter, and it's already there.

Place Richelme's morning market, just steps from the Hôtel de Ville, is what brings the old town to life — a perfect prelude to a box after the Richelme market.

The meal

From the square to the boxin three minutes

The spirit of Southeast Asia's night markets, tucked into the lanes between the Hôtel de Ville and the courthouses: a bit of buzz outside, the wok in sight, and an order that shows up before you've had time to wait.

  1. A cook searing noodles in a wok over a high flame

    The flame of the wok

    Noodles, fried rice, flavours: everything is seared in the wok, over a high flame, right in front of you. That's what gives Asian street food its taste of fire.

  2. A box of steaming Asian noodles, meat, spring onions and sesame seeds
    02

    A box, ready right away

    One base and one flavour brought together in a box, served in about three minutes. Just the right pace for a lunch break in the middle of a day in town.

    Take it to the cobblestones

    The room only has a few seats: Asian Road is built for express service and takeaway. Drop by, choose, and head off to eat wherever you like in old Aix.
