Description

Summary: A Southeast Asian culinary journey with vegan-friendly dishes.

Nestled in the heart of Northeast DC, Laos in Town offers an authentic Southeast Asian dining experience with a twist. The menu, rich in Lao specialties, also caters to vegans with dedicated options. Patrons can expect to find unique ingredients that are rare finds in other similar establishments. The restaurant's commitment to authentic flavors is evident in their "phet" dishes, which promise a spicy kick to satisfy those who love heat. Signature offerings include a savory sausage with herbs, papaya, peanuts, and green chili, as well as the chef's special papaya salad with green beans, pork loaf, and a mellow fermented fish sauce. The orm, a chicken-and-dill curry, stands out for its tenderness and infusion of Asian eggplant, cabbage, scallions, and green beans, presenting a symphony of flavors and textures.
