Lao

Lao is a Thai and Asian bistro near Hapjeong Station and Seogyo-dong Community Service Center in Mapo-gu, Seoul. Its wang galbi pho uses a broth simmered for eight hours, and the spring rolls are fried rather than wrapped in rice paper. The menu also includes tom yum cream risotto, Thai soft shell crab curry, and coconut cream shrimp. The dining room is small, so a wait forms at lunch.
