Laotian Restaurants in Chicago

Are there any?

Just curious. Had a mighty fine dinner at one up here in Madison, WI tonight (Lao Laan-Xang, on Williamson St.), and there are at least three others in the city. Any leads back home?

TIA!

only one I know of offhand is


Nhu Hoa Cafe
1020 W. Argyle
(773) 878-0618

you may also want to check cafe lao, though I don't know if they are serving specifically lao food

Peg,

As Zim said, Nhu Hoa, which has not been discussed much on LTH.

There are a few old c-h posts on Nhu Hoa here / here and one very interesting thread, kicked off by The Lovely Donna, which contains a wonderfully descriptive post by Seth Z about a Laotian dinner RST set up with Julie, the owner, at Nhu Hoa.

Seems we need to set up a Laotian LTHForum dinner at Nhu Hoa and generate some discussion.

Enjoy,
Gary

Outstanding! Though I think I'll have to take a pass on the ant eggs. I just can't cross that bug threshold, I'm afraid....

I'll post a little review of Lao Laan-Xang on the out-of-town board now. Thanks for the info on Nhu Hoa!
