Le Du Wine Bar & Restaurant: "Taste explosions all night"
Finally made it to Le Du last night, and it was amazing: we took the 6 course tasting menu, creating a long series of taste explosions in my mouth. Authentic Thai taste in a different, deconstructed form - like the short beef rib dressed as a Khao Soi (but without the soup), or the phenomenal river prawn with Chu Chi sauce (but not a curry). It's all very creative, well presented and served, by very nice and knowledgeable staff. Let's not forget the desserts, they are delicious and very creative, too. Nice wine list as well. Fantastic restaurant.Locavore: "Awesome set menu"
Very fine place to lunch or dinner. Reservation by phone quite hard, but female staff more helpful when you come to booking. However, the set menu is amazing. You will happy to spend two hours meal. 😆😙👍Muang La Lodge: "Unforgettable!"
"Our 3 nights in this timeless place were absolutely fantastic! The place is magic. The staff is incredibly professional and attentive and services went over our expectations. Breakfast is absolutely gorgeous. Croissant, Pain au Chocolat, Bread, Eggs, Homemade Jam, Fresh fruits...we enjoyed everything! The lunch is also very good. Simple and very tasteful dishes. Dinner is a bit more fancy. The taste and the presentation were much more subtle. You should try their cocktails! Especially one made with passion fruit, basil and Lao Lao, a traditional alcohol. We really enjoyed the food and the service. For our last dinner they even prepared an isolated table just for us! Thank you again for this very kind attention! The room was very clean and well furnished. The view on the river was very pleasant! We were very impressed by the discretion and level of professionalism of the housekeeping team. The swimming pool and the pool bar has been the place where we were spending our last minutes of sun everyday. Definitely a place where we were astonished by the beauty of the scenery. In short, our experience has been much more surprising than expected...This place made us aware of the incredible moments we were living. Priceless."Inle Heritage Stilt Houses: "Best hotel in the whole of Myanmar"
There is nothing to fault this hotel. It is basically run by youngsters from all around myanmar who stay and learn hotel management under supervision. They also improve their english as the6 have an English and American teacher. The rooms overlook water and are large and comfortable. The breakfasts and evening meals are tasty. The young staff make it and are always chatty and smiling. It is a must stay at hotel.Cuisine Wat Damnak: "Khmai food and hospitality at its best"
A really good restaurant. The food was top notch - Khmai food with an added twist. The service was first rate and the setting very conducive to a wonderful evening - highly recommended and not too costlyManda De Laos: "A very special place"
"Having booked our table here some time ago we were hoping for something out of the ordinary to remember our stay in Luang Prabang by. The special table we were given certainly lived up to our highest expectations and the food was just sublime. We thought the meal we had at another restaurant the previous night was excellent but the food at Manda de Laos took us to a different level. Claiming to be an authentic taste of Laos we can only confirm that this is cooking to a very high standard comparable to any we have eaten whilst travelling around the pworld. The suggested menu, describing it as fixed would do it a disservice, was delicious with wonderful flavours throughout the meal. Staff were attentive, friendly and courteous and described each element with knowledge and passion. There are some who will and have commented on the cost here but knowing the cost of things whilst not appreciating their value is one of life’s biggest mistakes. Let us just say it was good value and leave it there. This is a must visit restaurant in Luang Prabang so go all out for the Manda de Laos suggested menu, and we hope, like us, you find it as enjoyable and memorable as we did."Labyrinth: "Gastronomical experience"
A good take of Singapore's famous and iconic dishes. The chef played with texture, sight and temperature. A witty and successful attempt. Recommend tourists and locals to visit this restaurant. I like the signature chili crab and pen cai risotto. So good I wished there was more.The Hue House: "Customer"
First time when i come to the hue House , at first i has left deep impression is the espace with Huế imperial palace 's style , either the space outside , the service is enthusiasm , agile. Specially is the foods, they are delicous . There r too many kinds of great food so i couldn't try it all in 1 time . Honestly thats great. And for sure i will come back again to try another Hue foods very soonHotel Tugu Bali: "Hotel with Soul"
"If you are an art lover, history lover or luxury lover.. better yet... all three - THIS is your hotel. The minute you walk down the wooden planked front entrance, you know this is a special place. The hotel has been furnished from the owners private collection of antiques. Each piece has a story and specially placed on the property preserving his love of Balinese history. The antiques may be old, but the hotel has all modern wants for luxury but with the a unique touch in their boutique rooms. The baths & plunge pools are the highlight with tubs that you will want to build in your own home. This place is an oasis in Canggu."Mathis Retreat: "Lovely boutique hotel – perfect hideaway"
"I stayed here for a week and I miss it everyday! For the first part of the week, it was me and a girlfriend who came to Ubud to get away from the city, do a little exploring and do some yoga. We weren't sure if we wanted to stay in Ubud the whole time or go somewhere else in Bali, but after two nights, we extended our stay. One of our favourite things was having breakfast looking at out the private rice fields every morning, it was so relaxing. The pool had the perfect view. The hotel had a really good balance between a tranquil relaxed vibe, without being sleepy, and had some really good tunes throughout the day by the pool too (I ended up asking them for their playlist).The hotel was just a 10 minute scooter ride into town, which meant everything was really accessible without it being crazy all the time. My friend ended up going home early and I stayed on for an extra 2 days. The staff took such good care of me. And as a solo female traveler, safety is extremely important. They was so lovely and even taught me some Indonesian. The GM was super lovely and very hands on, she would come by and chat with the guests, without being intrusive. It was such a wonderful trip and the hotel was a huge part of it. Seriously, great rooms, great resto (really good food!), great view and great staff. I would definitely come back!"
