Ever since I saw my good friend Doreen Fang’s video blog on Pan Asian<\/a>, I’ve been drooling all over it!\u00a0 Allen and I made a point to visit during our last trip to Vegas in March to celebrate my birthday.\u00a0 We stayed at the Encore and the restaurant is about 7 miles away.\u00a0 Even if you don’t have a car, take a taxi here.\u00a0 It’s totally worth the trip.<\/p>\n

The restaurant is located in a strip mall on Durango near Sahara.\u00a0 The dinning room is not very big, but it has a huge open kitchen!\u00a0 It is run by David and Lisa Wong, two of the nicest people you will ever meet.\u00a0 Dining here is like dinning at your brother and sister’s house.\u00a0 Yeah, it’s like home!\u00a0 I loved watching Lisa cook in the open kitchen.\u00a0 She is truly an artist.\u00a0 The dishes are familiar and yet different with her unique style and taste.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I love the red walls.\u00a0 Do you know red color stimulates your appetite?\u00a0 Hanging on one wall were all the news articles featuring the restaurant.<\/p>\n

\"\"Believe it or not, I had Papaya Salad for the first time in Thailand just less than 2 months ago!\u00a0 I don’t eat papaya, so I never thought I would like green papaya salad!\u00a0 One bite of it in Thailand and I was hooked!\u00a0 Of course I had to order it here!\u00a0 It was ever better than Thailand.\u00a0 The dressing was light with the perfect amount of lemon juice so it’s not overly tart.\u00a0 Even though Lisa said it was only a level 2 on the spicy scale, it was already spicy enough for me.\u00a0 So keep that in mind when you order anything in regards to spiciness.\u00a0 I normally can take between 5 – 7 at other restaurants.<\/p>\n

\"\"David highly recommended the Duck Curry which was the special of the day.\u00a0 I had it before but not like this.\u00a0 Lisa deep-fried the duck instead of cooking it in the curry.\u00a0 The skin was so crunchy and yet the meat was moist and tender.\u00a0 When David told us it was 1\/2 duck, I didn’t think we could finish it, but it was so delicious that Allen and I stuffed ourselves and\u00a0 cleaned out the plate.\u00a0 The red curry sauce (with grapes, cherry tomatoes, green and red pepper, pineapple, cashew nuts and basil) was the creamiest and smoothest I’ve ever had!<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"I wish I could have ordered more dishes to try but we had a big lunch and just couldn’t eat more.\u00a0 Next time, I am going there just before coming back to CA so I can pack up all the left overs to take home!<\/p>\n

If you ever visit Vegas, make a note to come try this place.\u00a0 I know it is going to be my regular must-dine spot in Vegas from now on.<\/p>\n
