Talk about a total life saver and relief!!! I'm of South East Asian descent and originally from CA so the access to all my SEA food needs were less than 10 to 15 minutes away but since moving to NV, it's been a drag to drag 30 minutes plus to China town! I happened to be craving traditional Lao dish, Kapoon and while was in Henderson I saw the closest "Asian store" was only 15 minutes away and happened to be a Lao store! I was thankful to see I wouldn't have to trek across town to Chinatown and attempt to fight traffic on my way home.
The store is extremely clean and all their items were in stock. everything was lined up perfectly and importantly the veggie area was neat! I literally walked down every aisle smiling because all the items were familiar to me and that I could make my favorite Laos dish! In attempt to explore the store and gather all my ingredients, it just so happens this mom and pop shop has a mini kitchen too and serves freshly mad Kapoon (curry noodle soup)! I ordered chicken kapoon ($7) and a side of Lao style papaya salad ($6) to dine in. The kapoon was great and thankfully they had condiments for me to kick up the spice level but I understand why their spice level for it is a mild because it can get very spicy quick. The papaya salad was ok, I've had better but only because I've been spoiled living in a highly dense SEA CA town!
So I bought all my ingredients to make my anticipated dish but couldn't help to also try the store's kapoon too! So double whammy? :p I highly recommend this Store for anyone looking for specific items to make SEA dishes! I'm definitely coming back!!
