FOOD & DRINKS
Really great take on Laotian food, but nothing that I will remember. We did enjoyed every single dish and although they are “very generous” with the serving, it was way too much if you are ordering the set. I am not a fan of food wastage, so the restaurant may have to re-look into the quantity of the overall set menu. Luckily we were able to take some home away. We didn’t get to try their cocktails, but the quality of red and white wine was good.
ATMOSPHERE & SERVICE
Good vibe - funky decor, yet stylish! Although typical of modern restaurants (usually can be snobbish), staff still need to feel guests are at home. A little bit of interaction, chat or simply making the guests feel they are in the right place is what’s needed. Needs more confidence, and the human feel. Too commercial and too focused on the operation. Soul, soul, soul…is important. This adds to the overall look and feel of the place.
Water is also important in any meal service, not just on pouring the more expensive wine. I have to call the staff every time, to top up our water. Water is not free anyway (a carafe is THB80++). They also don’t pay attention to clearing empty plates on the table and ensuring everyone is having a lovely experience.
SUMMARY
I’d come back here for the food. I am sure the service will improve since it’s a fairly new restaurant venue. I like restaurants with a “soul”, a place where you don’t just experience food, but hospitality as well.
