Joy's - Luang Prabang

The best curry, sticky rice and mango sticky rice in all Laos! The owner is also absolutely amazing

I ordered a morning size, shrimp Tom yum, duck Laab and spring rolls for 140K KIP. Prices are slightly high compared to other Laos restaurants. Food is good, so no complaints. Owner Joy is quite friendly and beautiful to speak, they also speak good English.

Nice quiet family place a block in from the Mekong river. Easy to miss so use your map! Met Joy, she shyly said her food was very basic, but I disagree. We ordered the whole fried fish (amazing sauce), Morning Glory and a Pad Thai... Almost licked the plates! And Gin Tonics for couple bucks... Does it get better?

We enjoyed delicious curries with sticky rice in a beautifully appointed dining room. The tofu massaman was very good. I asked for spicy, and it was fairly tame, but very flavorful. My husband had the coconut fish curry menu, which includes eggplant tempura appetizer and sliced banana and mango for dessert. Lovely tables, chairs, tablecloths, cloth napkins, and cutlery. Many apparently vegan options are available, though I did not confirm that they are 100% vegan.

December 01, 2022, late lunch. Pork noodle soup and a mango shake. Nice interior, we choose a table near an open window, and start the fan to enjoy the cool breeze. The pork soup of thin rice noodles in a succulent broth and generous portion of tender pork pieces, served with lettuce, bean sprouts and wedges of lime. Mango smoothie, no sugar added, so refreshing. Friendly service, good food and prices ; a perfect combination. Great lunch.
