Friends And Grill - Banlung

The food was good, nothing special, but good, but omg it was waaay to season. don't get me wrong, I usually like to eat spicy, but that was just unbearable. Maybe they'll tell them in advance when they're sensitive. we had the Tofu-Curry and Papaya-Salat.

We had a curry and a Papaya salad here. it was both really spicy, maybe the most scientious dish we had in Southeast Asia. also the salat tasted a bit like fish, so maybe they use fish sauce for the dressing. it was our fault that we didn't ask before, so better ask. curry taste ok, but nothing special and we had much better eating for about 3.$ the salat was 2.$

Friends bar and grill was recently opened by the former chef of cuisine of the green carrot. I have tried the Tofu-Khmer-Curry, and it was excellent a deep, rich aroma with lots of fresh vegetables, made with cocos milk. I also had a fresh cocose that cannot be beaten! there are many other options that are vegan or can be veganized, such as sweet fried rice or sweetening, tom-yum, sweet and sour, stir fried ginger with tofu and cashew, and tomato pada. they also make fresh juice.

Recently opened by the former chef of the Green Carrot, Friends Bar and Grill offers a variety of vegan options that can't be beaten. I tried the tofu Khmer curry, made with coconut milk and plenty of fresh veggies, and it had a deep, rich flavor. I also had a fresh coconut, which was refreshing. Other options include vegetable fried rice, vegetable noodles, tom yum, sweet and sour dishes, stir fried ginger with tofu and cashew, and tomato pasta. They also offer fresh juice.

We ordered a curry and a papaya salad at this restaurant. Both dishes were extremely spicy, possibly the spiciest we have had in Southeast Asia. The salad had a hint of fish flavor, leading us to believe that fish sauce may have been used in the dressing. It was our mistake for not inquiring beforehand, so it's best to ask. The curry was decent, but nothing exceptional, especially considering we have had better food for around $3. The salad cost $2.
