MMM!! This Bar/Restaurant is located on Sansenthai, across from the LaoParis Hotel.
I went to lunch here for nearly a week straight. Yes, the food is that good! This is the only photo that really turned out well enough to post. All that means is that I have to go for another week!!
I’d heard that this was a popular locale with expats, and I know if expats frequent a place, it must be good.
I ate a really delicious chicken biryani. In my opinion, some artistic license has been taken with the dish, but not in a bad way.
Differing from other biryanis, this dish had some sort of hard gel cubes (if anyone knows a more fitting name, please tell me), crispy onion strips, and came with a very thin mint and yogurt sauce. Lots of turmeric was used, making this look like some sort of cheesy rice dish.
Now, I know I didn’t set it up well, the flavor of this dish was just YUM!
Why would I come back, really, if the food was bad? (Ok, don’t answer that…)
i think the gel cubes you're referring to are coconut gel squares.
ReplyDeletethe bottles my mom buys usually read "nata de coco" or something like that.
i LOVE them. jar, spoon? i'm there.
nata de Coco is the correct word for the coconut cubes.
ReplyDeleteI can't remember if these had any sort of coconut flavor or not.
If I can't remember, I just have to go back!
Thanks, Kristy!
