HIT THE SPOT LAO STREET FOOD – Thai
Tucked into the food court of an international market on Beach Boulevard, Hit The Spot cooks Laotian food the way it is eaten on the street — sticky rice in the hand, something crisp and sour and hot alongside it. Crispy garlic pork comes with a roasted tomato dipping sauce; the pork belly is slow-cooked until it gives way; the Lao sausage is coarse, fragrant and worth the wait. Papaya salad arrives as spicy as you dare order it. Diners single out the sausage and that salad again and again. Small counter, serious cooking.
