Half-way through my walking tour, I stopped for some refreshments at one of the suggested restaurants in The Lonely Planet : Tamarind. If you're ever in Luang Prabang and in the neighborhood, you should definitely check it out!
While the food was fantastic, what made the experience truly special was the detailed explanation of the ingredients the server provided and directions on how the food should be eaten. I was blown away by my server's patience and thoroughness. I can't tell you how often I've sat down to a foreign meal and thought, "Now what do I do?"
Pictured is the BeerLao snack plate. Sadly, I don't remember what all this stuff is. However, I can tell you that most of it was pretty crunchy and that all of it was absolutely delicious!
