Met up with a friend from York U here for dinner last night. The food is more Laos inspired than Thai. Really tasty food - started with the papaya salad (warning: it is super spicy) which was refreshing and definitely opened up all my sinuses:) It's a compination of rice noodles and green papaya with a spicy dressing. YUMM-O!
For mains I recommend the beef bbq - sauce was finger licking good and not too thick - perfect for a warm summer evening. we also ordered the eggplant dish which looked bland but tasted really great.
Ended with an amazing sticky rice and mango - they use wild rice to make sticky rice and that adds a whole new dimension to the already delectable dessert. The dec or is ordinary - with wicker chairs and paintings depicting life in rural Laos. I wouldn't trek all the way for just a meal (live way downtown) but if I can club it with another errand, I know I would be happy with another meal here.
