The environment is good, with a strong Southeast Asian style, many green plants, and it is very photogenic. The dishes are beautiful, the taste is authentic, and the service is good. It is located in Gaozhuang and close to the Xingguang Night Market. It is a treasure restaurant that you cannot miss when you come to Xishuangbanna. Bread curry crab, Tom Yum soup, mango sticky rice... are all delicious. Remember to arrange it. My daughter and I took a lot of beautiful photos. I am happy 😇
I arrived at the restaurant at 8pm. It might be a bit late. When I took the number, the waiter looked unhappy and told me again and again that we get off work at 9:30. There are more than ten numbers in front of you, and it will be around 9 o'clock when it's your turn... Like a little wife, I waited patiently for half an hour and found that there was a table in the open air on the first floor that had not been cleaned for a long time. I carefully reminded them if they could clean it up. I was told indifferently that we were short of staff and continued to wait. I finally waited for my number and was arranged to sit in the corner of the second floor. I went downstairs to ask if I could change it. We were not matched with the table. In return, I was full of impatience. If I change the table, I have to wait! Although I don't expect to be God when I come to eat a meal, I still hope to encounter poetry and enthusiasm from afar. This experience is very disgusting. I looked at it and the service score was also the worst. However, the male waiter on the second floor was eye-catching. He took the initiative to help add chairs and carefully asked if there were any taboos. On the way, he also enthusiastically reminded that no more dishes could be added after 9:30 pm. If necessary, I had to hurry up to arrange it. It's really one underground and one above the ground. Finally, the food is indeed good, but the service can be improved. The boss should arrange the time and benefits of employees reasonably to make employees more motivated and enthusiastic. Reputation is hard-earned, so cherish it while you have it.

What kind of style would make you slow down and stay for a moment, just like flowers and rain, clouds and wind, just like the coming and going and haste of everything in nature. I really feel that the world should not have so many troubles.
I came here during lunch time on the weekend. There are many fans. The environment is very good, natural and comfortable. The taste is very good and down-to-earth with the taste of nature. Maybe because of this, many people want to experience the authentic Dai cuisine and the environment. The taste is really very good. I have experienced various Dai people’s condiments. This is an impressive dining experience during my few days in Xishuangbanna. My friends who went with us also enjoyed the meal very much. I recommend this one. !

The papaya shreds were a bit hard to get used to. The garlic smell was particularly strong when it was first served. The mango rice was average, not bad. The milk tea was not very strong, but the lemongrass water was very delicious. I liked it very much. The environment is very good
The product has a light taste and tastes good, but the waiting time is quite long. Many people come to the store to check in and take pictures. Thai spring rolls are thin vermicelli wrapped with shrimp, cucumber and fruit inside. Eaten with spicy sauce, it has the taste of shrimp, the fragrance of cucumber, and the sourness and sweetness of several fruits. It's a good dish.

I really like to drink Tom Yum Goong #Xishuangbanna Food #Xishuangbanna Tourism #Gaozhuang Food is at the Lancang-Mekong River Sunset Restaurant in Beilanpo, Xishuangbanna, where you will encounter a double feast for taste buds and vision🌇. When dusk falls, the ripples of the Lancang River and the sunset glow in the sky complement each other, and the restaurant is already full of Thai-style food. The bright red Tom Yum Goong soup bubbles, exuding a sour and spicy aroma; the curry wraps the ingredients in the pot, and the color is attractive; there are also various fried rice and seasonal vegetables, which are exquisitely matched, as if the tropical style is put into the plate. Every bite is the ultimate enjoyment for the taste buds. Accompanied by the river breeze, sharing food with friends, watching the sunset melt into gold, and the city lights gradually light up. At this moment, romance and comfort are full, and the beauty of Xishuangbanna is all in this meal.
Title: Xishuangbanna Food Guide | Beilanpo Lanmei Restaurant A restaurant with an unbeatable river view that you must visit at least once in your life The scenery along the Mekong River is super beautiful, with blue sky and green plants🍃 The vacation experience is directly maximized!! Recommended dishes: Curry prawns (signature dish! A must-order for every table) Pineapple fried rice (very fragrant with curry sauce, each grain is distinct) Durian smoothie (very amazing! Super suitable for the summer in Banna!) The service is also quite good, the brothers and sisters are so warm and friendly and super polite😆 Strongly recommend Baozi if you want to try Thai-style dishes, the taste is very authentic, delicious, beautiful, and photogenic, and the cost performance is really high✌🏻 The location is also easy to find, and there are many landscapes that can be checked in, which are very suitable for sisters who love taking pictures!

Manfeilong roasted chicken is really cheap and big in quantity. If there are many people, ordering two or three is not enough. A large table of dishes, the final bill is only a few hundred, which is very affordable. After eating, you must go to the night market to walk around and digest the food.
This Manfeilong 3 Roast Chicken restaurant is located in Xishuangjing, Gaozhuang, Jiangbei District, Jinghong City, inside the Mekong River Starlight Night Market, behind the Shwedagon Pagoda. The roast chicken is authentic and tastes good. The dining environment is good and the location is easy to find.

Our family of three ordered a two-person pilaf, a vegetable soup and a boiled rice. It was super delicious, the taste was really authentic, and the price was very reasonable. The boiled rice was highly recommended! I highly recommend trying it, five-star praise!
I tried the food at Jianpuzhai Dai Restaurant and it was pretty good. The ingredients were rich and had ethnic characteristics. The dishes were also very delicate and beautiful. The environment was warm and comfortable, and the service was good, enthusiastic and great.

It’s hard to eat alone, but luckily he has my favorite curry.
Xishuangbanna food is not bad!! Every one is delicious! After returning home, I still miss the food in Banna!! I will post what I ate these days. They are really delicious!! Even if everyone has different tastes, I think the taste of these restaurants will not make you feel bad~ 1⃣️mamalao Laos hand-pulled glutinous rice Recommendation index: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Seeing some reviews that are average, it may be that the side dishes are not selected correctly. Follow the one in my picture and you will be right! The beef rice is delicious. The iced coffee in the store is okay. The advantage is that it is very cheap! 2 yuan a cup, what do you want! Mamalao is highly recommended by my thin friend and me. My thin friend usually has a small stomach, but he can turn into a pig spirit in Mamalao. It is delicious! ! Go early, otherwise many dishes are gone! It will be closed at 12 noon. 2⃣️Chonburi Recommendation index: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 A famous online celebrity restaurant, delicious and photogenic! Recommended tofu (superb!) lemon chicken wings, rice rolls~ ice drinks taste good~ the queue is really long. However, you can find the boss lady of a massage shop next door (Wanshou Palace) to help you queue. You only need to go to her for a foot massage. The massage is also OK. It is comfortable and you don’t have to queue. It’s great! 3⃣️Princess Nan Recommendation index: 🌟🌟🌟半 A Thai restaurant. Tom Yum Goong soup and raw shrimp salad are great. Mango juice is delicious! ! Lemon sea bass and grilled chicken are average. The environment is good and it’s also photogenic. 4⃣️Rolo Ice House Recommendation index: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Lemon rice is a must! ! ! Refreshing and perfect for summer. Pao Lu Da is sweet. I personally don't like it very much, but friends who like sweet food like it very much! Don't order the cold mango! It's terrible! This is also a restaurant that many locals come to eat. 5⃣️Wan Tai Recommendation index: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Coconut smoothie and lychee pineapple are very good. Spring chicken feet are the best! ! I personally think that this Pao Lu Da is better than Luo Luo and not so sweet. You can try it~ I recommend [Dai Le] for Laotian ice coffee (you can order takeout). There are a lot of people. It is recommended to find a seat before ordering! Everyone knows that the Internet celebrity restaurant is beautiful for taking pictures, so you definitely don’t want to take it out. 6⃣️Xiaoyu Dai-flavored barbecue Recommendation index: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Grilled fish and grilled chicken wings are very delicious! ! The vegetables in this restaurant are also very tasty. It is worthy of so many people. I ate two barbecues in Banna. I think Xiaoyu’s taste is very full. It is suitable for people with heavy tastes! It takes about 40 minutes to wait after ordering food at the restaurant. If you can't wait, don't go. The environment is relatively poor. 7⃣️Jianpu Village Recommendation index: 🌟🌟🌟 If you haven't eaten mamalao, you can go to this one. The taste is okay, but not as good as mamalao! ! Except for the hand-pulled rice, you don't need to order anything else. It's very ordinary (especially the Dai-style rice noodles) 8⃣️Paxi Dai Recommendation index: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 A halal Dai-style restaurant! Just order grilled chicken and grilled fish! ! His grilled chicken and grilled fish are the most delicious I have eaten in the past few days! Sisters who can only eat halal can go boldly! ! #The scenery here is as beautiful as a picture #Meet the beauty of China #Really fragrant snacks collection #Local food #Xishuangbanna

🌈This wild mushroom hotpot is so nice. The 138 yuan set meal for three people is delicious and affordable, and it also comes with flower cakes and mushroom soup dumplings as souvenirs. 💰138 yuan set meal: soup base, mushroom platter, chicken, luncheon meat and a vegetable. 👩🏻‍🍳Service: The lady with employee number 5 is super nice. She gave us a bottle of passion fruit juice, upgraded one of the vegetables to a vegetable platter, and gave us a flower cake each. As a popular online restaurant, compared with Manfeilong, the service here is much better. Not only is the service proactive, but the attitude is also good. After checking out, a bag of mushroom souvenirs was also given. 🌿The restaurant is still very large. In addition to the two halls in the front and back, there is also a row of private rooms. When the "mushroom soup" pot was served, wild mushrooms and chicken were already in it. Drink the soup first, then eat the mushrooms. The soup is really delicious. I drank two bowls in a row. "Wild Mushroom Platter" The wild mushroom platter for single-order has seven kinds of mushrooms, while the wild mushroom platter in the set meal only has five kinds of mushrooms. The two most expensive ones are not available, one is chicken mushroom, and the other one is forgotten. The mushrooms tasted OK, except that there was a brown one that had a medicinal taste. "Chicken" There was really a lot of chicken, we didn't finish it, the meat was still tender and delicious. "Luncheon Meat" is just ordinary luncheon meat, neither good nor bad. "Vegetable Platter" The vegetable platter contains tripe, tomatoes, enoki mushrooms, and several green vegetables. There is a lot of it, but we didn't eat any of it because we were really full of chicken. "Passion Fruit" is sweet but not greasy, very delicious!
This restaurant is located near Gaozhuang and specializes in steam hotpot. The store is quite large and has a private room. The price of a la carte is not cheap. Since the soup base is made of various mushrooms and chicken nuggets, the staff will help to operate it in the early stage to confirm whether it is edible. By the way, they will introduce the varieties of various mushrooms. The soup base is still quite fresh, and you can blanch your favorite dishes later.

Lao Botao BBQ is easy to find, just downstairs from the Beian Kangcheng community in Jiangbei, Jinghong City. The key is that the food is delicious and there is a bar next to it.
This BBQ is cheap and delicious, we love going there.
