Very nice to have Laotian cuisine around! Very exotic and interesting.
I ordered the Sai oua (sausage) and it was a little strong in flavours. Good at the beginning but I can see how it’s not for everyone. On the other hand, I really liked the sticky rice - very well made!
I wanted to try something more authentic but I didn’t enjoy the sausage as much as I expected. Can’t speak for the other dishes, but it seems like they make vary traditional dishes so will definitely try more!
I’ve had many items on the menu since they’ve opened. I feel like I’m a regular here! I moved away from my family and chef Bam’s cooking has reminded me of my mom’s cooking — absolutely fantastic! The Mok Gai reminds me of Aw Gai wrapped up in banana leaves and is probably my favorite dish along with the sai oua/sai gok. The jeow bong is the real deal and I always substitute for it.
I totally had a feast that consisted of nam khao, Lao sausage, Lao jerky, khua mee, tapioca balls, papaya salad and mok gai (steamed chicken with herbs). All were very tasty. Top 3 for me is nam khao, tapioca balls, and papaya salad. Also their desserts are so good!! Refreshing.
