Laos is a tiny country with a history that defies its size, with a strong Buddhist influence. Tonight's meal was a definite success, as we all enjoyed it. We had Laap, a spicy beef dish considered to be the national dish of Laos, along with a sticky rice, chicken and mixed vegetables and Mee Lad Na, a fried noodle dish. Jordan was totally thrilled with the noodle dish, and was more than happy to clean the bowl! Jessica, my talented young sous chef, definitely enjoyed the flavouring of the chicken dish. What I do find quite interesting is that there are only small differences in seasoning amongst some of the Asian countries, and while many of the main ingredients are quite similar, the flavours can be surprisingly different. I will say, the dishes tonight were delicious and will be both the noodle and chicken dishes will be added to our regular menus.
