Khambang Lao Food Restaurant

The slightly dreary, semi-open-air dining room couldn't be a bigger contrast with the tart, spicy, bold flavours served inside. This long-standing restaurant is the ideal introduction to Lao food via dishes such as láhp (spicy Lao-style salad of minced poultry or fish); roasted Mekong fish; stuffed frogs; áw lám, described on the menu as 'spicy beef stew'; and tasty Luang Prabang–style sausage.
