Top 10 places to learn to cook the local cuisine - travel tips and articles - Lonely Planet

Top 10 places to learn to cook the local cuisine - travel tips and articles - Lonely Planet: "1. Luang Prabang, Laos
Tiny, land-locked Laos is often overshadowed by close neighbours Thailand and Vietnam, but Southeast Asia’s most laid-back country also has its own unique and tasty cuisine, especially in the former royal city of Luang Prabang. After rising at dawn to offer alms to saffron-robed monks, learn the secrets of local specialities like jąew bąwng, a condiment made with chillies and dried buffalo skin, and khai phųn, dried river algae fried with sesame seeds. Both are tastier than they sound, and with a cold Beer Lao, khai phųn is one of the world’s best bar snacks."
