Tad Lo

There aren't a lot of options for eating in Tad Lo. The most popular option is the Sypaseuth Guesthouse Restaurant, which serves a limited western breakfast, as well as lunch and dinner, including a small selection of western food and many of the standard Lao dishes. The food here is quite good, and the seating along the river can't be beat, especially in the evenings. If you're only staying in Tad Lo for a couple of days, you may find this is the only place you'll ever eat. There is a new place, Jom Restaurant, just up the road past Tim Guesthouse, that is trying to make a go of it -- the owner, Jom, speaks English well and is a good source of information. Finally, the Saise Resort has a restaurant, with outside tables overlooking the falls. They serve Lao and western food in a bit of an upscale atmosphere (for Tad Lo) but the prices aren't too dear, and there's a selection of French wines available, from US$10 to 15 a bottle. There just isn't enough business to sustain a lot of eating establishments in the area, but if you find one we missed, let us know!
