"It looks like just a grocery store from the outside, but treasures (and a handful of tables) await inside Vientiane Grocery in Hillman City. The food items for sale are also raw materials for the kitchen to serve some interesting Thai (and Lao) dishes. Diners can enjoy pad ka pow (ground pork with holy basil stir-fry) and kuay jap: a hearty soup with rolled rice noodles and pork intestines. The pad thai has dried shrimp (as it should) and the green papaya salad has real heat (as it should). Best of all is that it’s all available for late breakfast." - Eater Staff
