Mandobar is a small Korean foodbar located on Paris 8th district. The bar counter sits 10-12 and there are only a few items on their menu, which is a good thing because it means more dedication for each item.
I am a fan of pure yet flavourful food. When I read a recipe that contains 30 ingredients, I wonder who will be able to identify and appreciate when it all comes together in my mouth. You are a food genius if you can master this blending technique. Too many places overdo the ingredients and the end result is often too complex and not even tasty. Not at Mandoobar.

| Hand cut tuna tartar |
The food is fresh, simple yet subtle. There are 3 main ingredients in their hand cut beef and tuna tartar, yet they taste completely different. The dumplings with kimchi filling was soft and mildly spicy. Very nice. Salad is fresh. Loved the Korean green tea, which was served in 3 rounds (small tea cups).
Call to book in advance.
