Khop Chai Deu — Restaurant in Vientiane Capital

This shop serves both as a bar and a restaurant. There’s a wide array of alcohol for one to choose from at very affordable prices.

The food was very delicious. The Fried Fish (285.000 kip) was extremely worth. It was very well seasoned, and it was so well deep fried that you can eat some parts of the bone like a cracker! Fish was very fresh and meat was very firm - definitely our top fish from this restaurant.

The Laos sausage was another favorite - the minced pork fillings were distinct and appetizing. The sausage was very firm and had a good chewy texture. The chilli sauce that accompanied it was truly a wonder. It had the right level of spice, and brought the right balance to the dish.

Fried rice wasn’t very nice though. Had to use the chilli sauce from other dishes to supplement it.

It is also quite a pleasant ambience for a bar. There is an outdoor seating area with an open bar at the ground floor, and an indoor seating area with a performance stage. There were also a lot of foreigners and tourists, so it seems to be a common tourist spot for food.

Because of the large number of tables and customers, service may be slow and may be quite difficult to grab the attention of the staff. Otherwise, it was a decent place to have a meal.

Edit: added new dishes as we went to the restaurant a second time. Naturally, we ordered the fried fish again! Satay chicken was actually very nice. Marinated so well that it was nice on its own. The peanut sauce that accompanied it was very rich and creamy. Very tasty!

Laap beef was very spicy, and was accompanied by a lot of herbs which overwhelmed the dish slightly. It is still very nice, and pairs well with rice. On its own, it is very salty and heavy in flavour.

The fried spring roll was a star! Very tasty and fried to a very crisp state. The sweet and sour sauce was prepared very well, and paired perfectly...

This restuarant is a hidden gem offering a delightful blend of Lao and western cuisine, left me thoroughly impressed during my recent visits. The star of the menu was undoubtedly the Lao food sets, specially crafted for two people. Each set encompassed a tantalizing assortment of soup, rice, salad, and dessert, perfectly complemented by a refreshing glass of loa loa drink.

I was pleasantly surprised by the incredible flavors and authentic Lao taste present in every dish on both occasions. We ordered the Discovery set and the chamasak set. Both were equally very tasty. The thoughtfully curated food sets showcased the richness and diversity of Lao cuisine, providing a truly satisfying dining experience. What's more, the portions were generous, ensuring a fulfilling meal for two.

In addition to the delectable food, the prices were incredibly affordable. With a mere $14, my dining companion and I enjoyed a complete meal, including appetizers and drinks. The affordability of the restaurant made the experience even more enjoyable.

The service was exceptional, with the staff displaying attentiveness, friendliness, and a genuine willingness to accommodate our needs. Their efficient service further elevated our dining experience, adding to the overall satisfaction.

It was the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the evening, making it ideal to visit before the crowd arr Khop Chai Deu is a true gem that seamlessly combines Lao and western cuisine.

With cuisines of various nationalities, And a vegetarian menu and then various drinks, beers, wines, cocktails, etc.,

I ordered. the bbq skewers, mango rice, and beer,all of them were delicious.

And I got curious what other people ordered. So I looked around at the restaurant's. I didn't even look up to the second floor.

People of various nationalities were all laughing and having fun With their companions. People and employees sitting outside trying to avoid the rain suddenly started pouring down, so they were momentarily distracted.

But everyone looked happy. Maybe it's because the food is delicious, Maybe it's because of the lovely and feel free atmosphere of the restaurant. Maybe it's because of the professionalism of the restaurant staff, or maybe it's because of the good time ,overflowing with happy emotions from the person they are with now.

Perhaps, all of the above contents.

Even though I ate alone, seeing other people happy made me feel good too. I think it would still feel good to visit again.

It was an excellent restaurant for me.👍

P.S. Of the dishes I ordered, the bbq skewers were overall delicious. However, the meat(beef) was a bit be tough n chewy.

And most importantly, be careful with the peppers on the innermost part of the skewer. I thinking it wouldn't be that spicy, but I was stupid for not being careful. my mouth was on fire for over 10...
