"Butting up against an alley with a “Laos Dr.” street sign above its doorway, this little spot serves up hearty portions of Laotian cuisine. The spicy papaya salad is a must, along with the nam khao (a crispy rice salad). The charred yet tender lemongrass beef skewers are another fave. And don’t leave without a bowl of the kao piak sen — when they say chicken soup for the soul, it’s this lao dish they’re talking about. On Sundays during football season, Seahawks fans may watch their favorite team on the big screen while eating their favorite wings. (We’ll take the wings any day of the week.)" - Jenise Silva
