Yum Salut - Review - Chinatown - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"This Lao pop-up in Chinatown’s Lokels Only community kitchen is great for a fun, casual dinner with a group of friends who won’t mind sharing the entire menu. That way, you can get a well-rounded mix of Yum Salut’s many dishes— from fried catfish lettuce wraps to minced beef larb to chicken noodle soup, all of which cost less than $20. We particularly love their crispy rice studded with sour pork chunks and red curry soup topped with fried fish shredded into crispy pieces. Whatever you order from this counter-service spot, throw in a side of funky, fiery Lao-style papaya salad—it’s got the kind of chili-laced funk that’ll make you push back from the table in awe. Yum Salut will be ending its residency at Lokels Only on December 31st, 2023." - Nikko Duren
