Indochina Spirit
The Indochine restaurant is one of the best restaurants in a city with many good places to eat. Not far from the night market, it is an easy place to find. You can choose to eat indoors or outside in the garden terrace. We opted to eat outside as the November evening was comfortable. The tables are candlelit so it is quite romantic. Service is excellent and the food is phenominal. Our bill came to $9.00.
For a casual lunch, or even a dinner, we recommend the Kheme Khan Food Garden overlooking the river. The tables on on a wooden terrace in the shade of umbrellas. We ordered three dishes and two orders of sticky rice, which was much too much food. The food is Lao-style and was excellent. The total bill came to $7. It's a romantic place for a casual lunch.
