From my review earlier this year of Garden Grove Laotian spot Royal King Elephant:
“…raw, chilled shrimp served alongside tomatoes and cucumbers, and it’s spicy. But whereas aguachile is cold and fiery, gung che num pa (which the Royal King Elephant menu helpfully translates as “spicy raw shrimp”) is funky and hellacious. About 10 shrimp are tossed on a bed of shredded cabbage, drowned in fish sauce, then slathered in a fermented chile paste heavy on ginger and lemongrass. Eat one shrimp, and you get equal parts sweet and tart, with just a tab of heat at the finish; eat the whole meal, and you’re left panting at the end, the chile paste gradually pummeling through your sweat glands like the end of “Bolero.”
BOOM.
