Signature · River fish
Mok Pa
Mekong river fish steamed in banana leaf with lemongrass, galangal, kaffir lime and dill — a dish as old as the river itself.
Authentic Lao cuisine, organic ingredients,
and the most beautiful sunset in Southeast Asia.
Perched on the banks of the Mekong in the heart of Luang Prabang, The Belle Rive Terrace is where the rhythms of Laos slow to something extraordinary. The water changes colour. The air cools. And the food arrives exactly when it should.
We source from local organic farms, from fishermen on the river, from hill tribe markets and from the gardens behind our kitchen. Every dish tells a story of this land.
