Bokeo Restaurants

Where and What to Eat in Bokeo

Decent restaurants serving local food and simple western dishes can easily found along the Mekong River. Several of them offer outdoor seating with big patios overlooking the river.

One of their highlights is Lao-style barbecue, a tasty do-it-yourself menu with meats and veggies grilled and stewed by the customers themselves with combinations like Japanese Shabu-Shabu and Korean BBQ. Most of the guesthouses also have menus at reasonable prices.

What to Eat in Laos

Lao cuisine is very similar to that of its Thai and Vietnamese neighbours, and meals of spicy soup, sticky rice and chicken or laab are favorites with the locals. Vientiane is serviced by several good French restaurants, a remnant of the country's colonial era, and baguettes and croissants are also widely available. Major cities in Laos offer restaurants to suit almost any palette but the selection dwindles quickly as soon as you embark on roads less traveled. The chance to experience the original taste of the traditional food is not to be missed. Read More...
