Lao Green Papaya Salad (Tam Mak Hoong) and Roasted Pork Belly (Aob Sien Moo Sarm San) for lunch in Vientiane, Laos.

It’s a busy day with no time to prepare a meal, so lunch was bought from the local market (Kok Pho Market). Today is a lucky day with supply of crab available for the Padek stock (fermented fish sauce), which makes the salad more tasty.

It was a delicious lunch with plenty of freshly steamed sticky and side vegetables to go with the Tam Mak Hoong.
