One month after posting a review about Les 5 for our monthly newsletter, I returned yesterday to have lunch.

The 18€ three-course lunchtime menu featured velouté of mushroom, prawns with risotto, and three scoops of artisanal ice cream for dessert. The velouté was thick and savory and the prawns with risotto were spicy and flavorful. For the ice-cream dessert I had a wide choice of flavors. I selected caramel, Bulgarian yoghurt, and almond milk…so smooth, so dreamy!

The bill for the three-course menu, plus a glass of Chablis and an espresso came to 25.20€. A great price for such a delicious meal!

We like to think that we are the first to have discovered and reviewed the new restaurant Les 5 that recently opened on rue Mouffetard just across from Eglise Saint-Médard in the 5th arrondissement of Paris.

Operated by Alexandre Nguyen and David Tran, the establishment serves up delicious French cuisine with Mediterranean and Asian touches prepared by Chef Youssef Gastli. A stark-black façade, a hip and handsomely designed dining room, and congenial service will make this restaurant a favorite for locals and travelers alike who seek great food at moderate prices.
