In the heart of the old town

Southeast Asia, around the corner of an Aix lane

Asian Road is Asian street food with no fixed country: Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Indonesia and Malaysia chart the route, and every box brings back a little of the journey.

You'll find it at 9 rue Laurent Fauchier, in the Vieil Aix, right behind the courthouses. No booking, no fuss: the kitchen is in sight, you order at the counter, and it's already there.

A few steps away, place de l'Hôtel de Ville sets the pace of the old town. To plan your visit, check notre guide pour manger asiatique à Aix.

The experience

A night marketbetween two squares of Aix

A bit of buzz outside, the glow of the lanterns, the mama behind the kitchen: the spirit of Southeast Asia's street stalls, slipped into a lane of the historic centre.

    The fire of the wok

    Fried rice, noodles, flavours: everything goes through the wok over a high flame, right in front of you. That's what gives Asian street food its scent of fire.

    Choosing at the counter

    You read the menu, point to your base, point to your flavour. No ingredient-by-ingredient builder: two choices, and your box is on its way.

  3. A box of steaming Asian noodles with meat, spring onions and sesame seeds

    The box, steaming hot

    Three minutes later, it's there. Enjoy it at one of the few seats inside, or take it away and wander through the old town.
