In any case, the food was good and a welcome relief for an Asian palate after weeks of travel in meat-cheese-and-potato-heavy regions of Europe. The menu has a wide range of dishes. The service was decent but as is the norm in Chinese restaurants, if you need something you may be better off waving at your waitress rather than politely waiting for her to come to your table. There are other Asian options in Annecy; this restaurant was very authentic and well-priced, and probably the best strictly Chinese food in town.

Le Peking is rather old fashion Chinese restaurant. This kind of Chinese restaurant is rare and…read moreonly exist in small foreign cities outside urban areas. If you are craving for Chinese food, there is not much choices in Annecy. The simple dishes like stir fry noodles with bean sprout 芽菜仔炒麵, and house fry rice 揚州炒飯 are done fairly well. However, the roast duck and the sizzling beef are dissapointed. The roast duck is overwhelmed with watery sauce, which they can make a soup out of it. The sizzling stir fry beef to me is only a gimmic than anything else. Overall, the service is great The portion of each dish is smaller than I expected. In terms of quality, and presentation, this restaurant will have a hard time competing in modern urban city like Paris, Vancouver, London, and Toronto. However, because it is locations around Annecy you don't really have much other similar choice around here.

Gem of a little authentic Cambodian restaurant, new to Annecy, which also has dishes from…read moreneighboring Vietnam and Thailand. Friendly, delicious and great ingredients--the prices are higher than the average Asian restaurant, but justified by the difference in quality. I hadn't had Cambodian food before, and really enjoyed tasting food that was new, but also familiar, as it is has a lot in common the cuisines of neighboring Vietnam and Thailand. And also (if I remember correctly what the waiter said), the chef's wife is Vietnamese...and the restaurant has a Bo Bun (noodle bowl) on the menu. I didn't try that for my first visit....instead I ordered the special of the day, for 22 euros. I chose the special because it had three different dishes, so I'd get to try a mix of things. The chef delivered the meal himself, and told me it was like a home cooked meal in Cambodia. Apparently it's common there, when time and money permit, to eat a mix of different dishes rather than just one large portion of the same thing. Lots of fun when you're a gourmande like me! The quality of the ingredients and the preparation was excellent--a far cry from the pre-made nems reheated in a microwave so typical of Asian traiteurs in France. My favorite of the three dishes was tender chicken chunks and vegetables in a savory coconut broth, which reminded me of a Thai Tom Yum soup. The coconut broth was absolutely delicious. The chef brought me a Nuoc Mam (fermented fish sauce) with spicy red peppers as an optional addition to this. The fish sauce was spicy and strong and wonderful (the kind of thing you'll love, if you like that sort of thing, and I do), but the coconut sauce was so good by itself I ended up not using much of the Nuoc Mam. The other two dishes were a tender carmelized porc dish, shredded in a brown sauce with quartered hard-boiled eggs, and an amazing bowl of rice. It was labeled "Cantonese rice" but it had nothing in common with the typical peas and egg concoction typically found in France. The flavor was a very mild aromatic spice flavor (not sure what but it was *good*) with a small amount (just right) of Chinese sausage, barbecue pork and scrambled egg mixed in. Some reviews on another site talk of long waits here for your food. I came early on a Sunday night, and I didn't wait long at all. However, the waiter told me the wait for food can be significant when there's a crowd (particularly on Friday and Saturday nights) because everything is made to order, and the kitchen is small, with just the chef and no assistants. So basically, if you're in a hurry, don't come here when it's busy! Sam' Angkor has been around for a while as a "Traiteur" or take-out place in La Roche Sur Foron. The Annecy restaurant location opened (I believe) in May. I plan to come back and try the Pad Thai (apparently it's the Thai dish as it would be eaten in Cambodia...) and the Bo Bun, so I'll update after I've tried those!

Nicely prepared tables and large windows without the usual asian kitsch appealed us to come in and try. There are concise a la carte options as well as their flagship menu which gives you a good variety of vietnamese dishes.

One minor point , In terms of originality ( and those who have been in vietnam) it falls a bit short , but nevertheless it should not deviate too much from the french tastebuds to appeal clients ... Highly recommended. ,,!!

This place is SO good that I wish there were places like it in Los Angeles! Everything is homemade, the menu changes every day, the ingredients are so fresh and everything I had was absolutely delicious!! I always ate the suggested meal on the menu, and ended up eating here for lunch every day I was at the festival (3 straight days). They also serve dinner. I highly recommend the noodle curry and the tofu bowl with peanut sauce - literally the best peanut sauce I've ever had in my life. The food is hearty, filling and so so good. They provide both a French and English menu. I highly recommend this spot for vegans and vegetarians or anyone who wants a healthy and creative meal that doesn't involve bread or cheese, which is sorta hard to find in France.
