BADASS MONASTERY!!!
Southwest Vegas is painfully notorious for being home to just about nothing, except - SURPRISE! We have a monastery in the middle of a residential neighborhood. And one Sunday every month, it becomes home to a mini street fair maxed out with Southeast Asian delights.
You pay up front with cash to an adorable little lady for fair currency, which you can exchange back into dollars if you have any leftover coins. This is also the same lady who is the gatekeeper to the famed curry puffs - a sweetened curry paste enveloped in a flaky crust - that must be ordered one fair's time in advance, $5 for 7 puffs. Here you can trade in your usual brunch staples of waffles and eggs Benedict for a piping hot bowl of stew pork noodle or made to order pad thai.
There isn't too much bilingual signage beyond the entrance, especially for the food, but all of the items are homemade and all of the vendors are very proud of their work, so they're more than willing to explain all of the ingredients to those of you who show up as clueless as I did.
