Au Parc

23 Han Thuyen, District 1
Telephone: 3829 2772
Open  Monday - Saturday 7:30 - 22:30 and Sunday 8:00 - 17:00

Au Parc is a three-level Mediterranean cafe/restaurant that also features delivery and catering. It's located near the Reunification Palace and Notre Dame Cathedral in downtown District 1. This is one of the few restaurants I know of that also features a kid's menu.

The kid's menu features favorites like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches to spaghetti bolognese. We happened to have a kiddo with us when we visited who ordered the spaghetti. I have to admit that it was pretty good and it only cost 50,000 VND which went well with her 25,000 VND banana and yogurt smoothie.

We ordered the Beef Kebabs in garlic, cumin & ginger marinade (180,000 VND), Toasted ham, cheddar cheese & tomato wrap (79,000 VND), Passion fruit, honey & coconut smoothie (55,000 VND), Mango, passion fruit & pineapple smoothie (50,000 VND) and a Dark Chocolate Mousse (55,000 VND).

We were very satisfied with the food. The steak for the kebab was cooked to perfection and it came with a delicious cucumber-yogurt sauce, chopped veggies and fries. I enjoyed my meal and the chocolate mousse. My smoothie was pretty good too, but I thought the smoothie with the coconut that I didn't order was better. It was really very good.

We give this restaurant our thumbs up as a great place to stop by in the city. Whether it's to sit down and cool yourself off by having a smoothie or to bring the family by for a meal. Their fairly large menu should have something to please anyone.
