Small eatery serving authentic, fiery, fabulous food from the Isaan region of northeast Thailand and nearby Laos. Dishes come as spicy as you want, and trying to be a big man will seriously burn your mouth. Start with “medium” or five on a scale of ten, and see how many refills you need for your beverage.
Everything is good, and ordering curry seems like a waste here when there are so many great, harder-to-find dishes available.
