Fresh Springrolls and Fish Curry - Luang Prabang

These spring rolls were some of the best we'd had on our trip. Loaded with fresh herbs and served with a zippy vinegar chili sauce, they were a treat.

Lao curries were not quite as spicy and thick as their Thai counterparts, but they were tasty in their own way. Sticky rice is king - and normally served in a little thatch basket to give it form. White, purple or brown, sticky rice in Laos never seemed to disappoint.
