Halal fried chicken and waffle burgers in Vincennes / Saint-Mandé

The neighbourhood: on the Vincennes and Saint-Mandé border

The restaurant bears the name Vincennes, but the address is 67 avenue de Paris, in Saint-Mandé, just a few metres from the border between the two towns and a stone's throw from the bois de Vincennes. Avenue de Paris is precisely the road that stitches the two towns together, from the porte de Vincennes to the château: busy, well served, lined with shops. The restaurant draws office workers at lunchtime as much as families and groups of friends in the evening, and is a stopping point on the way back from the woods, the zoo or the lac Daumesnil.
