Reviews on International food in Savannakhet, Savannakhet Province, Laos. Savannakhet, officially named Kaysone Phomvihane (Lao: ໄກສອນ ພົມວິຫານ; Thai: ไกสอน พมวิหาน) and previously known as Khanthabouli (ຄັນທະບູລີ), is a city in western Laos and the capital of the Savannakhet Province. With a population of 120,000 (undated), it is the second-largest city in Laos, after Vientiane. The city is the birthplace of Kaysone Phomvihane, the first leader of Laos from independence in 1975 to 1992, and was named after him in 2005. Although the old French colonial quarter of the town, along the Mekong River-front, is depressed and crumbling, the town's proximity to Thailand's booming economy has brought about new commercial development in the northern part of the town, near both the river crossing and the bus terminal.

Lin Cafe has relocated 150 m to the east, facing the Talat Yen Plaza or Night Market.
Every time I visit Savannakhet I pretty much only eat here.The laap spicy salad has been my favorite dish over the years but on this last visit it was just terrible. Chewey meat and no chili added made for a really bad dish served. Maybe theyâve changed their chef? Who knows?Something felt off.Itâs still an ok spot if you keep it simple with the breakfast/lunch menu but for the more elaborate dishes be aware it can be a lottery.Thank you for your comment.In fact, the level of spiciness differs from person to person.Please do not hesitate to tell us how hot you like.This is same for fish sauce.Looking forward to seeing you again soon.

Went a few times...really nice owners, English guy and his Laos wife. Pizza was very good compared to what you get in most of SE Asia, and the toasties were what you have in your mind when you buy that plastic crap fro 7-11 (if you have lived in Thailand, you know what I mean). Had a few other meals (lasagna, spaghetti, and, oh yeah, awesome English breakfast), and none of them failed to please.Not saying other places aren't worth going to, but this definitely became my go-to place in Savannakhet for "Western" food.
