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.

There is ethnic diversity in Annecy and France, but I was disappointed in the lack of ethnic diversity in cuisine. I have always loved different Asian cuisines and considered myself lucky for living in Los Angeles, but there are few Asian restaurants in Annecy. I discovered Fan House as it was adjacent to the Airbnb where I was staying. I was pleasantly surprised by the outstanding food. It was far superior to almost every Chinese restaurant that I have dined at during my whole life in the Los Angeles area! Like most French restaurants you are able to taste every ingredient in the dish. It is hard to find a bad restaurant in France and this restaurant meets the high standards that the French are known for. I highly recommend Fan House. You will not find this restaurant by just walking down the street. It is tucked away in a passageway with other little shops off of Rue Sommelier and Rue Vaugelas. Look for the marquee of the Le Garage Disco and it will be right inside opposite Le Garage. It is also adjacent to the Pré Carré in the heart of the city near Bonlieu. I have since, dined there several times and very pleased every time that I have gone.

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!

There were no dishes that I did not like, but the highlights or me were the fried tofu with the salty/spicy topping, the rice noodle crepes, spare ribs, one of the dumplings (had an awesome filler), and the fancy siu mai (I think it had crab or shrimp on top). We ordered a bunch of other things too, some not pictured... Sorry, I was hungry and forgot! The servers were on top of their game with the refills and food came out quickly.
