Beautiful interior and location, with dark wood panelling and elegant design. Seating is a bit cramped and actually improved by the protective clear screens between the tables, which give a bit more separation between the tables. Service is brisk and professional, not quite cold but not really friendly either. The food is a bit underwhelming unfortunately, spices and fresh herbs are lacking, dishes are generous but taste bland. The real depth of flavor associated with good Vietnamese cuisine is sadly missing.

Called 1 hour before they closed, they told me they would not make any pizza any more, not even to take away.

Pretty good selection of Southeast Asian groceries and products. Chinese and Japanese selection is rather limited. The home made Vietnamese food sold at the counter is surprisingly good. Only drawback is that you really have to watch out when buying vegetables, herbs or other fresh items, as they often have rotten or off foods in the refrigerated section.

Very friendly owners and the best selection of Chinese ingredients and products in Munich. Reasonably priced even though it's located in an expensive neighborhood. The small but nicely stocked fresh produce section is also pretty good. This is how a small Asian grocery store should be like!

The shop is beautiful and always smells amazing. Unfortunately the baked goods are not as good as the appearance would suggest. Baguette is dense and heavy, no flaky crust, it definitely doesn't taste like real French bread. Cakes and sweets are also very dense, there is nothing of the light and airy texture of real French patisserie. I bought some gateau au chocolat which was so heavy I almost couldn't finish a single slice, it was like eating straight melted chocolate.
Too bad because the place has so much potential. It's just too expensive for the product they deliver. There are much better French bakeries in Munich, like Lehmanns in Untergiesing.
