Atelier Mala

The Only Sichuan Cuisine in Reims

The must-visit restaurant for fans of Chinese cuisine, especially Sichuanese dishes. The highlight is the authentic dishes made with fresh vegetables, local meat, handmade wheat noodles, dumplings, and freshly prepared dough kneaded before every service.

The name of this restaurant refers to a much-loved cuisine in China: Málà cuisine. “Má” represents Sichuan pepper, mainly used in this region, while “là” refers to the spiciness of chili.

On the menu, you’ll find several starters like Yacai Sidijou (made with beans in sauce and marinated mustard sprouts) for €6 or the famous Sichuan-style potatoes (stir-fried with Sichuan spices and cumin) also for €6. Among the main dishes, there are various choices of rice or wheat noodles in soup, including vegetarian options ranging from €13 to €16. For example, Dan Dan Mian are fresh wheat noodles served with minced pork seasoned with chili oil, homemade sweet soy sauce, sesame paste, and peanut butter.

You will be welcomed into a warm atmosphere with wooden and black furniture, complemented by light color tones.
