Overlook the traffic noise – this popular restaurant has great food and service. It has some of the best Thai food in town and is a great introduction to Lao food, with set meals of sticky rice, steamed veggies, chilli sauce and fried fish/chicken/pork. Vegetarians can try Lao food that is usually meat-based, such as pumpkin soup (om mahk éu) and mushroom gôy.
