Open kitchen

A kitchen you can watch at work

In Southeast Asia's night markets, you always see the kitchen: the flame, the steam, the moves. Asian Road brings that spirit to the heart of Aix — you walk in, you see the mama behind the kitchen, you order, and it's already there.

Street food with no fixed country, inspired by Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Indonesia and Malaysia, prepared right in the room, at 9 rue Laurent Fauchier.

The craft

What's cooked here

Dishes set by the kitchen, and total freedom in the pairing: one base, one flavour, brought together in your box.

The bases

Rice & noodles
  • Snow Rice
  • Garden Fried Rice
  • Noodz
  • Garden Noodz
  • Glass Noodz

Fragrant white rice, wok-fried rice with vegetables, egg and crispy onions, wheat noodles, stir-fried noodles with vegetables, rice vermicelli with the house sauce.

The flavours

From the wok
  • Gold'Curry
  • Caram'Chicky
  • Beef'Woky
  • Shrimp'Yummy
  • Veggie'Yummy

Curry, caramel chicken, beef, shrimp, or tofu for a veggie take: every flavour goes through the wok, over a high flame, as it's served.

To nibble

Crispy & Sweet

The Crispy Road — chicken nems, veggie nems, beef samosa — and, to finish, the Golden Sticky Rice: coconut sticky rice, naturally coloured with the seasons.

From fire to box

Homemadeand served in three minutes

Fast doesn't mean ready-made. The spirit of a street stall: a bit of buzz outside, the flame in sight, and a box that shows up before you've had time to wait.

    You choose at the counter

    One base, one flavour, readable at a glance on the menu. Point to your pairing, and the kitchen gets going straight away.

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

    The box comes together

    The base and the flavour, fresh out of the wok, meet in the same box — steaming, ready to eat.

    Eat in or take away

    Only a few seats: Asian Road is built for express service. Eat your box at the counter or take it away in a kraft bag.

The homemade spirit

The mama behind the kitchen

You order express, and it's already there.

That's the picture Asian Road was born from: a kitchen you can see, a figure behind the wok, and the immediacy of the night markets. No tablecloths, no booking — real street cooking.

Meat-free? The Veggie'Yummy flavour, made with tofu, and the veggie nems from the Crispy Road. For kids, My Little Road follows the same idea, simplified.

Frequently asked questions

Homemade, made simple

Where can I eat homemade street food in Aix-en-Provence?

At Asian Road, 9 rue Laurent Fauchier, 13100 Aix-en-Provence, in the old town, right behind the courthouses. Eat in or take away, no booking needed.

Are the dishes cooked on site?

Yes: the kitchen opens onto the room, and the flavours go through the wok, over a high flame, as they're served. You watch your box being made.

How can you be served in three minutes?

Because the menu is short and built for the wok: one base out of five, one flavour out of five. The kitchen keeps going, and your box arrives almost straight away.

Can I build my dish ingredient by ingredient?

No: the dishes are set by the kitchen. The freedom lies in pairing a base with a flavour — twenty-five possible combinations.

Is there a meat-free option?

Yes: the Veggie'Yummy flavour, made with tofu, with any base, and the veggie nems from the Crispy Road.

What are the opening hours?

Tuesday to Thursday and Sunday, 12pm to 2pm and 7pm to 10:30pm; Friday and Saturday, 12pm to 2pm and 7pm to midnight. Closed on Mondays.
