Madtown Eats | Ahan Lao – A Must-Try Restaurant in My Book!

This was my first time trying Lao cuisine — and it totally blew my mind! 🤯 If you love exploring new flavors, you CAN’T miss this place!! 🤤 🔥 Special Grilled Chicken So delicious! The sauce was savory with tom yum hints and a touch of mayo — complex and addictive! The skin was crispy 🍗, the wingtips were a bit chewy, but overall — incredibly flavorful! 🌿 Mok Pa (Steamed Fish in Banana Leaf) Tender cod wrapped in banana leaf, served with an unforgettable sauce — rich, aromatic, and uniquely Lao. It’s similar to Thai/Vietnamese but totally its own thing. A must-order! 🥥 Fried Coconut Cake Tasted like a coconut-filled matuan (Chinese sesame ball) — interesting, but skippable. 🍜 Unknown Special Soup (Limited?) Couldn’t find it online — might be seasonal! A rich, tangy, and spicy broth like tom yum + curry + coconut milk + herbs 🌶️🥥. Served with rice noodles and THE crispiest, most amazing fried chicken on top 🍗😍 I’d honestly go back just for that chicken! Ahan is a flavor adventure — highly recommend if you’re tired of the same old Asian spots! #MadisonEats #LaoFood #AhanLao #AsianCuisine #FoodAdventure #Madison
