Eating Like Locals in Luang Prabang, LAOS 🇱🇦

On our first day in Luang Prabang, Laos we set off to see what the city has to offer! We only recently arrived in Laos by one of the most relaxing modes of travel; the slow boat. You know it’s going to be a great day exploring a new country when you stumble across a place that makes a PERFECT Lao coffee. We see some gorgeous sights (in the immense sunny heat) and cool off with delicious local Lao food dishes & local beer - which took us by surprise! We can’t wait to see what else Luang Prabang, and Laos as a whole, have to offer!

Luang Phrabang reminds me of Chiangmai of 60 years ago! Thais and Laotians are brothers, sharing the same Religion, culture and genes. Many Thais in the northern region of Thailand are of Lao heritage. Enjoy your journey!

[@2Passports1Dream]

Oh yeah that makes sense! It feels similar but at the same time very different to Thailand - we are enjoying it a lot so far 😍🇱🇦

[@bkbk6700]

Yeah we brother Thais, Lao

No. Nowadays, Thais and Laos is just a neighborhood. Lao people think that Vietnam is their real brothers.

Really nice to see you went for local food. Its funny how expats and visitors dont eat local food which is absurd because it could be considered the best part about visiting Asia. For me its the food, weather, people thatmake South East Asia amazing.

[@tovielu5461]

I’m great that you guys like to try Lao food. I’m Lao, who live far away, but always craving for Lao food. My favorite Lao foods are: 1. beef jerky, 2. AwLarm or beef stew that you had it. 3. Larp can be make from beef, fish, or pork. 4. Sy-Oual or Sy-Kar is same as Sausage, but Lao style. 5. Grill chicken.

[@2Passports1Dream]

Thank you so much for the list of foods - they sounds brilliant 😍🤗 hehe it’s so nice here!

Luang Prabang is truly lovely. And we Thais ever have an affection for our brothers in Laos. An incident at a restaurant amused me. A group of Thai tourists looking the menu asked "what, you don't have fresh oysters?" . Yeah sure land-locked Laos is famous for its fresh oysters.

[@2Passports1Dream]

It is so lovely 💕

I spent C-19 lockdown in Luang Prabang...such a charming/relaxing place and as you pointed out, there aren't any large commercial signs or retail chains, which was so nice. That soup you had is a Luang Prabang specialty called 'Or Lam' cooked with pieces of pepper wood (sakhaan). Nice video and happy travels!

Loving the Lao videos!. You'll have to try the noodle soups, Khao Peuk sin and Khao poon (probably can get vegetarian versions too) and with sticky rice eat in dipping sauces called Jeow Mak Len (tomato salsa) or Jeow Het (mushroom dip) also you usually eat Sticky rice with your hands, kinda like dipping Naan bread in butter chicken. Won't say you guys ate it wrong, but normally you'd take a piece of the stick rice, kinda roll it between your thumb and finger and use it to kind of scoop some food and eat it.

[@2Passports1Dream]

Ah yes!! You’re not the first to say that about the sticky rice - we will definitely try the ball method next time 🤗🤗 thank you! 🤗

I heard the city is slow, but it looks veeeerrrrryyy sloooow. The pork stew is called “Or Lam.” And yes, Laotians eat sticky rice with everything. Wash your hands and then grab a bite size. Squeeze it into a ball like you would play dough, then use the ball to pinch it with whatever you’re eating. Treat it like naan or tortilla - meant to eat with your fingers. Awesome video!

I never tried d sticky rice d way d Thai n Laos people have it, with savoury dishes. I had sticky rice with mango, that's quite lovely. D Malaysian like sticky rice too esp with their desserts. D Malay also like to have sticky rice with savoury dishes, like pulut kuning, a turmeric sticky rice, or ketupat palas, sticky rice in a triangular weaved pocket of palas leaf n cooked with coconut milk, or lemang, sticky rice n coconut milk stuffed in bamboo n cooked over wood fire. We have all that sticky rice with either beef or chicken rendang, curry, peanut sauce n also serunding, spicy meat floss. Well here I go again, rambling with some info that's not related to Laos.

[@2Passports1Dream]

Hahah we love your comments, full of information! Sticky rice goes well with anything - but mango the best haha

I've been waiting in Siem Reap, Cambodia for 2.5 years to return and had a flight scheduled for TOMORROW, but found a fantastic doctor and wish to continue medical care here and will be continuing on to Tbong Khum Province, Cambodia to teach a bit with little kids in a remote village.

Thanks for your enjoyable tour of home Luang Prabang.

Love your video so much! Luang Prabang is my favourite place to chill, I went there four times in 9 months even though I lived in Vientiane. Watching your video makes me want to go there again😭 Dylan’s food is called ’Oc larm’ btw that’s a real luang prabang local dish. I recommend to try the rice noodles that’s close to Joma bakery, the shop opens about 5pm and it’s superb for me hehehe basically pork stock and rice noodles with pork!!! And of course papaya salad, sticky rice, the deep fried river weed called ‘kai pan’ and a chili paste with buffalo skin ‘jeow bong’. Hope you enjoy your trip in Laos 💝

[@Bubbleebubblo]

Btw it used to be full of shops on the main road but because of the pandemic. Also don’t forget to go to the morning market tbh 6am is a good time to go, there will be full of shops. And later ride a bicycle in the morning, it’s so chill and nice weather and not busy roads. I recommend a cafe called ‘Saffron’ coffee is good but just tell them less sweet cus sometimes it gets too sweet lol and also best bakery is at ‘Zurich Cafe’.👍🏻👍🏻

Love your video. We'll be heading to Luang and Vien Laos via Xishuang (China) in the next few weeks. The Patongo is literally a white sugar cake deep fried in oil can be eaten on its own as well as dipping into thick black coffee only (no milk) or with rice porridge. As for the currency notes, sometimes it can be a scam as many foreigners aren't familiar with the money and by the time you finish counting to the last note, the person whom you dealt with could have disappeared. You often end up with less notes or with some other fake notes added to the bundle. Good to carry lots of small notes with you or change big notes with reputable stores. Hope you both had good fun staying in Lao or Laos.
