Secret Pizza

Luang Prabang


All right, so the secret is out, but it's well worth sharing. Long the preserve of Luang Prabang residents, host Andrea prepares wood-fired pizzas, classic lasagne and homemade gnocchi in the garden of his lovely home. Profiteroles and a fine bottle of Italian wine round things off nicely. Signposted from the main road; it's at the end of Soi 3, off Rte 13.
