Lao Siam

A Belleville institution since 1985, founded by a Thai-Lao family and still cooking from the long menu that made its name: green papaya with pickled crab, crisp rice squares in coconut-shrimp-pork sauce, whole fish steamed in banana leaf. The décor is plain; the kitchen is not.

EssentialInstitutionLong-running
