About

Zaab Eli- it means delicious in Lao! We serve authentic Lao and Thai Cuisine! Fresh, bold, and delicious. Dishes are made to order. You can choose your spice level too, we understand not everyone can handle Thai Hot heat! We work fast without compromising quality, and love serving big crowds! What is Lao food? While both Lao and Thai cuisines are beloved for their bold flavors and use of fresh, vibrant ingredients, they each have their own distinct culinary identity. Lao cuisine is known for its rustic and earthy flavors, with an emphasis on fresh herbs, bold spices, and fermented ingredients. Lao food tends to have a more savory, herbal profile, with a strong focus on the balance between heat, tang, and freshness. On the other hand, Thai cuisine is renowned for its complex, harmonious balance of sweet, salty, sour, and spicy elements. Thai dishes like pad Thai and curry incorporate ingredients like coconut milk, lemongrass, and kaffir lime leaves, which create a layered, aromatic depth of flavor.
