Lao Village

Sydney's FIRST Laotian Restaurant!

Lao Village was first established in the early 80s by a group of young men looking for a place to hang out, they named this place 'Lao Refreshments' selling a little bit of this and a little bit of that. By 1983 all but 1 of the men wanted out of this business and the young man who did not want to sell was fortunate enough to buy out his 10 mates. After buying the business he decided to re-establish it as a restaurant specialising in authentic Lao and North Eastern Thai cuisine.

Today, the Restaurant is known as 'Lao Village' and it is now run by the son of that young man, whom cooks the exact same way with the exact same recipes as his father did (and has been doing so for over a decade now).
