This is a patio restaurant serving excellent Lao food and some French fusion dishes. Tiled floors and simple wooden tables with real cloth napkins and a large selection of wine make this a bit nicer than most restaurants in the same price range in Thailand. Although the food seems similar to Thai food it has a little less heat and is more gently spiced than Thai food in general.
This restaurant’s offerings had a rustic, country-kitchen quality served on thick clayware and set off with locally produced tablecloths and furnishings.
Throughout Laos beef can be found more easily than in Thailand too and this restaurant had excellent steaks-frit. The whole grilled fish was also excellent.
