Lanna Café, a sunny bause

Lanna Cafe Photo Principale

Run away from the bustling Place de Clichy and take refuge at the Lanna Café, a small enclave of Thai inspiration where one feels terrific. Water colors of tropical plants on the wall, bar seats in raw leather and an ultra relaxed ambiance have a lot to do with it. And on the plate? Not a wide choice, but excellent ! Bouillons with lemon grass, fresh coriander and Thani chives; raw fish or meat (beef or duck) with thousands or spices and herbs that one tries to guess while imagining being transported thousands of kilometers from the Place de Clichy, closer to Thailand.

Special kudos for the raw sea bass (19€), an ultra-fine delight. To be enjoyed with sides of glazed veggies cooked at low temperature and a crunchy fennel which also deserves a prize of excellence.

If you opt for the bouillon (15€), no worries, it’s just as subtle – and even a little lighter. We just love this address that does away with the  Winter doldrums using exotic spices, fragrant herbs and a holiday atmosphere.

We like: the relaxing ambiance, tartares prepared under our eyes and the eye of indulging without feeling guilty.
