Reviews Summary

"We were looking for a Chinese restaurant in town, we found this little hole in the wall place tucked away in some small alley. It says Tibetan restaurant so it picked my interest. It just happened that there's an empty table for our party. The low ceiling and Tibetan decoration makes it pretty interesting. We are served by the amazing Gabriella — great English, speedy and attentive service, very helpful and patient in explaining the menu to us.
We ordered:
- Raviolis Tibetains a la viande (momo - tibetan dumplings)
- Nouilles sautees aux fruits de mer (Fried noodles with seafood)
- Riz saute aux crevttes-ananas (Fried rice with shrimp and pineapple) 🌟
- Gou Bao Rou 🌟
- Plaque chauffante de porc 🌟
- Porc saute aux oignons (Sauteed pork and onion)
While i think the momo is okay, the highlight for us is their pork dishes, the sauteed pork and especially the signature guo bao rou. Really crispy and delicious, it resembles the one I have in China. We left satisfied with the food and service. Will recommend this if you are looking for eastern food in Clermont-Ferrand."

"We found this little hidden place thanks to the online reviews and we were not disappointed. Nice decor, friendly service, and delicious food - great value for money. We tried the steamed dumplings (momos), fried noodles, and the sweet-and-sour pork - it was all just perfect. Do give it a try if you're looking for something different in Clermont-Ferrand.
(The momos are highly recommended!)"
