Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
It's not easy finding Laotian food in Denver, as Laura Shunk discovered after her recent return from a trip to Southeast Asia. On the hunt, she dropped by Edgewater's US Thai, which has an owner from Laos, a chef who's cooked all over Thailand, some seriously hot food, and lots of fans, like Glenn, who posted this:
Nice to see the US Thai review. I've spent quite a bit of time working in Thailand. This is the closest I've found to authentic here in Denver. And, yes, hot means hot. When I walk in, they have a beach towel waiting for me to drape over my shoulders to wipe off the sweat.
Now, that's service!
