The Balcony By Lanith

The Lao National Institute of Tourism and Hospitality (Lanith) is the country's primary hospitality training provider, with support from the Lao-Luxembourg Development Cooperation. To that purpose, the Lanith Centre in Luang Prabang opened the balcony bar and restaurant, which received a lot of positive feedback. The balcony, which is both an educational institution and a social enterprise, reinvests all revenues back into the community. The menu is a Laos-French fusion that incorporates the freshest ingredients available locally.

Pit Wanderschied, a Michelin-starred chef with extensive expertise in Europe, crafts delectable fine dining Laos-French fusion meals while also teaching Laos workers to the highest standards. Everything is sourced locally, and the freshest foods are used on a daily basis. The food is diverse, and the wine/spirit selection is large, including beer for us Aussies.

The balcony is off the usual path, despite its proximity to downtown Luang Prabang. The restaurant intelligently provides a tuk-tuk service to transport its clients, and it boasts great views of the rivers and mountains. Blue glasses, blue lighting at the bar, and blue paper lanterns at the table are just a few of the restaurant's modest yet imaginative elements. It's completely spick-and-span.
