During the path that will take you into the forest to start learning how the tribes of Laos cook in the forest, you will learn and pick the plants that will make up the dishes you will cook. You will delve into the primary forest of Laos (10 min walk) to our carbet where you will learn how the tribes cook using bamboo, stone and other forest products.
