Back in June of last year, it was announced that Sabai Sabai, one of the city’s most popular Thai restaurants was closing for good. This was due to the placement of a construction project in the area at the time. Owners Jason Jiang and Seng Luong now have a new venture in The 6ix and it’s open for business. The duo plans on sharing their love of their Lao heritage with Lao food in their new bar.
About Lao Lao Bar in Toronto
The 110-seat restaurant includes a lounge that resembles a speakeasy, a dining room and a patio. The patio seats up to 20 people. The bar has a cozy interior with parasol lights, long tables, and artwork on the walls. According to their website, the restaurant aims to “connect contemporary expressions of Lao culture and reinterpret our memories of home through sharing elevated food and drink.”
The menu is split into share plates, large share plates, and plant-based items. This includes items like spring rolls, salads, dumplings, curries, noodles, and fried rice. Some of these dishes can be customised to be suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
