Padang Food

Many Choices of Padang Food Quick, simple and not too expensive: this is our slogan.

I am talking about “Padang Food” . This is not Balinese food but it’s very common here anyway.
This kind of food tastes like some kind of Thai food, a lot of coconut milk with curry. For sure this kind of food can make you wake up as it’s spicy but it’s up to choose the food, so becareful!
There are many choices: fish, chicken, pork, shrimp, boiled egg, soft tofu or fried tofu (all menu with curry, fried or deep fried with curry) boiled plain vegetable , sometime they have vegetable with curry, chili paste and many choices of sauce (peanut sauce, chicken sauce, fish curry sauce) served with steamed hot rice.

My favourite baguette sandwich in Vientiane!

Egg SandwichEgg Sandwich
It’s quite easy to eat good baguette sandwich in Laos but at the same time you may not be lucky and get not so fresh bread.

My favourite place it on the Mekong river : The Shade Restaurant.

The Club Sandwich that usually I order it just perfect ! it’s crispy and tasty and if you drink a mango shake then you will come back again for sure!

The prices for the baguettes go from 10,000 to 15,000 Gib (1 /1.50 U$)

Don’t worry if the waitress doesn’t smile. You will not even notice, lost in the baguette!
