Saap Saap! Admin, can you cook any of these dishes, haha.

Always a bottle of beerlao on the table at any feast. Can't find a single bottle of water but you sure can find beerlao anywhere. Don't have a chair to sit on? No problem, use the beerlao crate. I try to help the local economy while I was in Laos by eating all I could. Beerlao tastes so good when you have some meatballs on a stick and some chicks feeding it to you, haha. You know what I miss eating the most in Laos, patte bread. I don't even have a picture of it but I went to this place near this business school downtown vientiane somewhere and had the best "couchie patte" I ever ate. The bread was so soft and fresh and crispy where it needed to be. They put some moo foi (shredded pork) on it and some sauce which made it taste like no other. I remember biting into it and thinking, I'm in heaven. I could eat that everyday. I miss Laos, food was almost better than them sexy chicks. My next trip, I'm going to find a hotel next to that couchie patte place. Oh the other thing I tried was "seen mai" which was for breakfast and you dip some bread in it as well. It was also heavenly. I also went to try the hot soya bean milk they serve off the streets, it's called "narm dow hoo". The only thing missing was they should have added some kieng (ginger) like my mom used to make. Man I'm hungry now.

Personally, I like pate from Donpalan street. A shop somewhere in the middle of the shoplot operated by a vietnamese - Laos family selling marn kuan, pate, congee and fish maw soup. Usually will be pack during morning breakfast hour.

Will be back for that, when I am back to Laos hahahaha

Does anyone know of a distributor that distributes Beerlao in the U.S.?

Yummy! The second item from the top looks highly interesting ! What is that?

Airheaded question but this is still typical for Lao family to sit on the floor and eat?

I like to do it on the floor.... eat that is, haha. Yeah eating together on the "sat" is the best. Brings back memories.
