Green Restaurant
A popular, affordable restaurant in a quiet lane by the Nam Song River, serving Lao and Thai food and wood-fired pizza; at dusk you can watch karst mountains and hot-air balloons.
Located on a quiet lane by the Nam Song River north of town, with views of the karst mountains. At dusk you often see hot-air balloons and paragliders drifting across the sky. The menu mixes Lao, Thai and Western dishes: Massaman curry, green curry, and stir-fries with rice are about US$3 each, along with wood-fired pizzas and many tofu vegetarian options such as tofu laab and or lam, a Lao stew. It gets very busy in the evening, and at peak times food can take a long time to arrive. Reviews are mixed on consistency and hygiene. No reservations are needed.
