Un pequeño restaurante en el que los cocineros fueron formados por algunos de los grandes chefs americanos.
Es difícil clasificar este pequeño restaurante en una categoría bien definida. El concepto de Moko y Omar les está limpio. Estos dos tienen un recorrido atípico que sería demasiado largo para contarles, pero sepan que fue un día abogada en Nueva York donde conoció a Omar. Han sido entrenados por grandes de la gastronomía americana, inglesa y francesa. En París es un ex del sargento reclutador y es una antigua pastelería de Yam'Tcha. Su lugar es como ellos, sin etiqueta. Cocinan lo que les gusta: sopa de brocoli, pancetta y col negra o hummmos, hombro de cordero de leche confitada y pimientos ahumados, etc. Nuestras papilas se estremecen en cada bocado. Las galletas crudas crudas son geniales… Algunos platos y pasteles son sin gluten.

Café is a misleading term given the quality of the food, and the price. It’s not cheap, though the recent spike in oil and produce prices have made both eating out and running a restaurant more challenging.
I discovered Mokonuts from an NYT 25 dishes to eat in Paris article and like how Hiramaya-san described food. I looked up the restaurant she and her husband had in the 11th, like their philosophy and approach to food and made a booking.
The NYT article may be why most of my fellow diners had American accents, a mix of expats and tourists like me, though a French-speaking walk-in was politely and regretfully turned away as the restaurant was fully booked. The owner knew, from my broken French grammar when I called, that switching to English would be a more efficient conversation. Much as I like bumbling with my terrible French in Paris, it’s nice to be able to exhale and not worry about saying the wrong thing or be seen as that annoying tourist that expects the world to speak English.
You know a place cares about feeding people well when they welcome solo diners. Parisians can be quite cliquey, so it was nice that this is a place where I ended up having a nice chat with the person whom I was sat next to. It had that NYC vibe, where if we were both expats we could have found a new friend to hang out with.
I think I enjoyed the experience more as it’s an owner operated place. I had 3 courses and a glass of wine and water.
24 hours later, I am still regretting not asking for an order of the cookies to go, which the regulars seem to love.
On a cold rainy day, this room behind the fogged up windows was a lovely place to be. Easy to get to on the 8 metro. Book ahead.
Le prix ne vaut pas le déplacement .
