My younger brother is a cook. He was introduced to Laos to cook, and his family knew nothing. I'm worried that insiders will talk about related matters online and so on. thank you

There are many Chinese restaurants in Vientiane, Laos, which are close to saturation. The bigger ones are: Meigong Hotel (Beijing Hotel), Fumanlou (two chains), Hongsheng Restaurant, Sichuan Restaurant and so on. Chinese food belongs to high-end consumption in Vientiane. Besides China people, Laos and other foreigners also like Chinese food very much. However, limited by the urban population, public tastes and consumer groups, the operation of Chinese restaurants in Laos can only be said to be "ok", which is not as popular as local restaurants and cafeterias. Most other capital cities in Laos also have Chinese restaurants, with a small number.

In the past two years, China people have flooded into Laos to find business opportunities in this virgin land, and Chinese restaurants have also grown. Chinese food is characterized by rich patterns, exquisite dishes and exquisite tastes. But Laos is located in the tropics, and its climate is hot and humid. Popular tastes tend to be sour, spicy and raw, which is very similar to the Dai flavor in Yunnan. On the one hand, there are fewer Lao people who are exposed to Chinese food, and they are only a minority consumption among Lao people. On the other hand, the positioning of Chinese food is still far higher than the local taste (the same dish may be 50%-65433). Therefore, the consumption groups of Chinese food are mainly overseas Chinese, and the consumption groups are limited.

If an acquaintance helps your brother find a good job and the salary is good, he can still go to Laos to develop. After all, the development of Laos is much slower than that of China, and there are many opportunities. If we can make our own characteristics and make our own brands, we will have a bright future in Laos.

For the basic situation of Laos and so on, you can check my previous answers. It might help you.

You can also leave me a message directly through the ferry, and I will try my best to help.
