Most Delicious Jok Lao Porridge in Luang Prabang
Local Lao breakfast by Prachaniyom
Lao Porridge |
I walked to my favorite local shop for an amazing bowl of Lao porridge. It's a small local restaurant in an old shop house, just along the Mekong River. I ordered porridge and Lao coffee, both of which cost only 8000 kip (about $1). I chose to sit by the river and enjoy the extraordinary scenes of the early Lao morning; the chocolate milk river that encircled the nearby green mountains and people being ferried on rickety wooden boats across the river.
Lao Iced Coffee |
The Lao iced coffee here is richer and stronger than any other cafe that I've been to in Luang Prabang. My boyfriend especially is a coffee lover, and he really loved this brew! The most important thing for us, since we always travel on a tight budget, is that it so CHEAP!
The shop is easy to find, clean, and the staff there are all very friendly.
One little comment is that there might be some small piece of pork bone still in the porridge, so be careful not to bite too hard. Overall this is still my favorite place in all of Luang Prabang for breakfast. They also serve noodles, but I haven't tried them yet... maybe I'll have to go back again soon! Prachaniyom is quite popular among locals, but as I sat there, I also saw some tourists stop by for a bite too. I highly recommend it for everyone!
