It took us travelling to a remote town in Laos called Tahkek for me to start getting excited about street food in Laos.
True to what I have learnt on this trip – the simpler the street food, the better it is – and this was definitely the case as we stumbled upon a woman selling BBQ along the Mekong River.
After surviving on chicken necks and mystery meat we were shocked to see huge pieces of chicken breast and our stomachs immediately stood to attention.
The obligatory sticky rice was also ordered, as no meal is a meal without it in Laos.
The chicken was some of the best I have ever had – Im not sure if this is because I have been gnawing on bones for so long though – but never the less it was moist and full of flavour.
Dinner - $5, Experience - $Priceless.
