TMG – Kaipen, a crispy snack made from river weed, and an ice cold glass of Lao beer is how diners at Alamea Restaurant, located on the Mekong River that flows through the heritage city of Luang Prabang, typically start their meal when ordering Lao specialties in this ancient capital of Laos.
Alamea is Luang Prabang’s top-rated restaurant on TripAdvisor and Agoda, having risen from the ranks of the Top 25 restaurants on TripAdvisor and an 8.9-star rating on Agoda. The journey to claiming the top spot reflects a new and youthful approach that the restaurant has adopted in this beautiful UNESCO-listed town known for its efforts to preserve its unique culture and identity.
Alamea is on a mission to introduce gourmet diners to the diverse, traditional flavors of Luang Prabang, typified by a pairing of Lao beer and kaipen, a river weed harvested from the Mekong River. The restaurant décor recalls the elegance of the Lao Royal Family, making it a wonderfully unique culinary destination for those who want to delve into the fascinating history and culture of Laos.
In the regal setting of the last residence of the Lao Royal Family where the king and queen welcomed official guests, modern-day diners are invited to savor the slightly sweet and nourishing taste of a crispy sheet of river weed dipped in a fish sauce, chili and garlic sauce as it dissolves on your tongue, helped along with a few sips of ice cold local beer.
Perusing the pages of Alamea’s menu opens up a royal culinary experience like no other in Luang Prabang, where guests can savor the flavors of Laos fit for a king.
