Lao & Thai Food in Dallas–Fort Worth!
Lao & Thai Food in Dallas–Fort Worth! The Raw Shrimp Is Incredible 🦐🔥 It’s been so long since I’ve had raw shrimp this amazing! Tucked away in Fort Worth, Asiannights Lao Thai Cuisine & Bar is definitely a recent hidden gem I’ve discovered for Southeast Asian flavors 😍. 🦐 Goong Sair Nam Pa: This raw marinated shrimp is a party for the taste buds! It might not be listed on the menu, but just show the name to the owner. The shrimp are crystal-clear, coated in a tangy, spicy Thai sauce—tender and smooth like “seafood jelly,” with zero fishiness, just layers of sweetness and spice. As a raw seafood lover, my ranking has always been: Thai-style > Chaoshan > Korean, and this plate is the peak of Thai-style raw shrimp! 🌶️🍋 🍲 Khaopoon: That red noodle soup holds its own too! The broth is rich with a mild heat, packed with ingredients like pork blood, chicken feet, and herbs… One sip of the soup, one slurp of the noodles—warming and satisfying. Want more spice? Add their house-made chili sauce to kick things up a notch! 🔥 🥓 Pork Belly: The crispy pork belly is as crunchy as chips, with explosive savory richness, paired with a tangy spicy dipping sauce that cuts the grease perfectly—you won’t be able to stop at just one piece~ 🍛 Yellow Curry: The yellow curry lets you choose your spice level. We went medium—creamy coconut milk gently wrapped around the heat, perfect mixed with rice! 🥗 They have a whole page of papaya salad options, even a raw crab papaya salad (Thum Crab)! We ordered too much this time to try it, but just reading the menu made me hungry—definitely next time~ The restaurant vibe is great too, blending traditional Southeast Asian charm with a modern bar-like ease.
