The Papaya Lady restaurant, located inside a carniceria in the plaza, offers delicious and authentic Lao and Thai food. Known for their take-out service, the owners personally prepare the meals, including their popular "som tam" papaya salad. Prices are reasonable, and portions are large. While some reviewers note a slight change in the taste of the papaya, other dishes remain delicious. This hidden gem is definitely worth a visit for those seeking real Lao and Thai flavors.
