Toronto | Is This Lao Restaurant Worth the Hype? š„¢
As a die-hard Southeast Asian food lover, I finally tried Lao Lao Bar - here's the honest scoop: š½ļø What We Ordered: š„¬ Stir Fried Spinach (Originally wanted morning glory) - Wok hei perfection! - Tastes like authentic street food š¶ļø š³ Pad Gra Prao (Holy Basil Pork) - Crispy pork belly instead of classic minced meat - Too greasy after a few bites š - Basil flavor was love-it-or-hate-it š· Khao Moo Dang (BBQ Pork Rice) - Five-spice char siu style pork š - Comes with sweet sauce, cilantro & soy - Runny marinated egg was the star! š Chicken Vermicelli Curry - Silky rice noodles (melts in mouth) - Perfect coconut-red curry balance š“ - Tiny portion - more bowl than noodles š¤ š„„ Sakoo Pudding - Hard coconut-taro pudding - Weak flavor, disappointing texture - Skip it! š What Others Ordered: Pineapple fried rice looked amazing! Next time~ ā ļø Heads Up: - Super slow service (even on off-hours) - Friendly but understaffed - Come prepared to wait ā³ š Location: 5 St Joseph St, Toronto #TorontoEats #LaoFood #SoutheastAsianCuisine #HonestReviews #FoodieFails #HiddenGems #DTDining #AsianFusion #CurryLovers #TorontoRestaurants
