#BLESSED is back! Our traditional Lao pop-up dinner returns, and since this is our first one since the pandemic, we’re celebrating with some very special guests for year 2566! We hope you can join us Saturday June 3rd 2023 6-9PM EST.
As always #BLESSED will continue keeping with Lao tradition and guests will enjoy a unique dining experience of:
multiple-course dishes* served community style on a pakhao (low table)
sitting on a saht (Lao rug) on the floor with shoes off**
pakwon available for guests to tie wrists threads and give their own blessings
old school mor lum karaoke music jams playing a celebration soundtrack
hearing from special guests sharing their stories as Lao Americans
Our very first guest is Chef Donny Srisavath from Dallas, TX. Stay tuned for as we announce updates for our other two guests! This year we are popping up at First Tee at FDR Park, a beloved community space to our Southeast Asian refugee community here in Philadelphia.
*While "vegetarian" dishes are available, we are following traditional Lao recipes which include fish sauce. A menu will be shared closer to the event date, however we suggest listing any allergies with your registration.
**Alternate seating options on a first-come-first served basis.
